Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken wings
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 large mango, peeled and chopped
  • 2 small habanero peppers, seeded and diced
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon coconut aminos
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, toss the chicken wings with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until all wings are evenly coated with the spices.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are crispy and cooked through.

Step 5

While the wings are baking, prepare the mango habanero glaze. In a blender, combine the chopped mango, diced habanero peppers, lime juice, honey, coconut aminos, and melted coconut oil. Blend until the mixture is smooth.

Step 6

Pour the mango habanero sauce into a saucepan and simmer over medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 7

Once the chicken wings are cooked, remove them from the oven and transfer to a large mixing bowl.

Step 8

Pour the thickened glaze over the wings and toss to coat them evenly.

Step 9

Transfer the glazed wings to a serving dish and sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving.

Step 10

Serve the wings hot as an appetizer or main dish, and enjoy the tangy and spicy flavors!
