Ingredients:

  • 10-12 chicken wings (drumettes or flats, or a mix of both)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)
  • 3-4 tbsp Wiri Fire Hot Sauce (adjust based on your spice preference)
  • 1 tbsp honey (to balance the heat)
  • 1 tbsp lime juice (for a zesty twist)
  • Fresh cilantro or parsley (for garnish)
  • Blue cheese or ranch dressing (optional, for dipping)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Chicken Wings:

    • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) or heat your grill to medium-high.
    • Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure they crisp up nicely.
    • In a large bowl, toss the wings with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, and cayenne pepper (if using). Make sure each wing is coated evenly with the seasoning.

  2. Cook the Wings:

    • If baking, line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil and place a wire rack on top for the wings to sit on (this allows air to circulate for extra crispiness). Arrange the wings in a single layer.
    • Bake the wings for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden and crispy on the outside.
    • If grilling, place the wings on the grill and cook for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until they’re cooked through and nicely charred.

  3. Make the Spicy Glaze:

    • In a small bowl, combine Wiri Fire Hot Sauce, honey, and lime juice. Stir well until the ingredients are fully incorporated. The honey will add a touch of sweetness that balances the fiery heat of the sauce.

  4. Toss the Wings:

    • Once the wings are cooked, remove them from the oven or grill and place them in a large mixing bowl. Pour the spicy glaze over the wings and toss them well until they are completely coated.

  5. Garnish and Serve:

    • Garnish the wings with freshly chopped cilantro or parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
    • Serve with a side of cooling blue cheese or ranch dressing if you want to balance the heat.

Tips:

  • For an even bolder flavor, marinate the chicken wings in Wiri Fire Hot Sauce for 1-2 hours before cooking.
  • If you like your wings extra crispy, you can broil them for the last 2-3 minutes of baking.

Enjoy the fiery, flavorful kick of Guyana’s finest hot sauce with every bite of these spicy chicken wings! Perfect for sharing (or not – we won’t judge).
