Ingredients

• 2 pounds chicken wings
• 1 large mango
• 2 small habanero peppers
• 0.25 cup apple cider vinegar
• 0.25 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 peeled garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon ginger
• 1 juiced lime
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon coriander powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly oil it.

Step 2

Peel and pit the mango, then roughly chop it and add it to a blender.

Step 3

Remove the stems and seeds from the habanero peppers (for less heat, use fewer peppers or keep some seeds). Add them to the blender.

Step 4

Add apple cider vinegar, honey, olive oil, garlic cloves, ginger, lime juice, salt, and black pepper to the blender.

Step 5

Blend the mixture until smooth, adjusting seasoning to taste if needed.

Step 6

In a large bowl, combine chicken wings with paprika and coriander powder, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 7

Pour half of the mango habanero sauce over the wings, reserving the other half for later.

Step 8

Toss the wings in the sauce until they are well coated.

Step 9

Arrange the wings on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.

Step 10

Bake for 20 minutes, then turn the wings over using tongs.

Step 11

Brush with additional sauce and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the wings are cooked through and slightly charred.

Step 12

Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes.

Step 13

Serve the wings hot, drizzled with the remaining mango habanero sauce and garnished with lime wedges if desired.
