Crispy Coconut Peanut Wings with Cilantro Lime and Chili

These chicken wings are baked, not fried but you still end up with a crispy coating without the hassle of hot oil.  This is a great simple coating for wings that gets great results every single time!   If grilling your wings, omit the flour and toss them in the spices only.

Once the wings are done cooking, we toss them in our Cambodian Coconut Peanut Sauce and the flavor is incredible!  Smooth and creamy but bursting with the bright citrusy tang of fresh lime with a lingering spiciness from the chili.  This is a wonderful recipe when you want an alternative to your traditional buffalo style wings for game day or an event.

Crispy Coconut Peanut Wings with Cilantro Lime and Chili

Ingredients:

12 small wingettes and drummettes (1.5 lb)
1/4 cup Wozz! Cambodian Coconut Peanut Sauce

1/3 Flour (plain)

1 Tbsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic powder
1 tsp Ginger powder
1 tsp Onion powder

1tsp salt
1tsp pepper
1/2 tsp dried mint (optional)

1 Tbsp butter (for baking)

Garnish (optional but highly recommended)

Lime Wedges
Sliced spring onion
Sliced red chili
Cilantro
Chili Flakes
Peanuts (crushed/toasted)

Method:

1. Preheat Oven To 425 degrees F. (bake)

2.  Mix Your Seasonings and Dredge

Mix all seasoning ingredients with the flour until well combined (omit flour if grilling your wings). Dredge your wings in flour seasoning ensuring evenly coated.

3.  Cook Your Wings

Evenly space wings on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. (if grilling your wings, season and grill your wings for 4-6 minutes each side and continue with steps below)

Put a few little knobs of butter in-between the wings.

Cook for 30 minutes at 425 degrees F

Turn wings over and bake for another 15 minutes or until cooked. (if grilling skip this step)  

Extra Tip* (if your Wozz! sauces is refrigerated, warm through a little on the stove top or microwave so it doesn't chill your wings)

4.  Coat Your Wings with Peanut Sauce and Garnish

In a large bowl toss Wozz! Cambodian Coconut Peanut Sauce with wings until evenly coated.  Add your garnish of cilantro, fresh lime wedges, sliced red chili and crushed peanuts.

5.  Serve Your Wings

Finish with an extra drizzle of Wozz! Cambodian Coconut Peanut Sauce if desired.  Enjoy!
