Notes
- If Paleo, use coconut aminos in place of the soy sauce.
- If you would like to reheat wings, place them on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and bake in 300-degree oven for 12-16 minutes, or until heated through.
- Nutrition facts are calculated per wing.
-
- Save some. Be sure to reserve half the sauce to reduce for the best wings.
- DIY. If the grocery store is out of prepared wings, learn how to cut chicken wings yourself.
- Get it hot. A few minutes under the broiler will yield perfectly crispy chicken wings.
- Top 'em off. Don't forget the green onions, peanuts, and cilantro!
- Breathing room. Use a wire rack to get extra crispy wings. And make sure you flip them halfway through!
