Guy Fieri's Tequila-Lime Wings
Ready In: 1 hr 45 mins
Yields: 3 pounds
Ingredients
For the wings
- 3 lbs chicken wings, split at the joint, tips removed
- kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
For the sauce
- 1 teaspoon grated lime zest
- 1⁄2 cup fresh lime juice
- 1⁄4 cup tequila
- 1 tablespoon agave syrup (sometimes called agave nectar)
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon adobo sauce
- kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- Prepare the wings: Preheat the oven to 350°F Season the wings with salt and pepper and arrange on a baking sheet in a single layer. Cook until just brown and crisp, about 45 minutes.
- Make the sauce: Combine the lime zest and juice, tequila, agave syrup, cumin, adobo sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 tablespoon pepper in a bowl. Pour over the warm wings and let marinate at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat grill to high. Grill the wings until marked, 10 to 15 minutes, turning as needed. Transfer the marinade to a saucepan and cook until slightly thick, about 8 minutes (you can do this on the grill as well). Drizzle the wings with the sauce.
