Sweet and Sticky Grilled Chicken Wings



Everything seems to taste better on the grill. And chicken wings, although fantastic baked in the oven until sticky, are no exception.

What I love even more about this recipe is that there aren't piles of dishes to clean up afterwards, and on a hot summer day, the house doesn't get heated up with the oven. Oh, and did I mention that the grill just intensifies the amazing flavour of the marinade while keeping the wings nice and juicy?

You can marinade these wings for as little as an hour or overnight. Just take them out of the fridge for about 30-45 minutes before cooking so that they come up to a more ambient temperature (you should do this for everything you put on the grill or in the oven for even cooking).

And one more thing... make sure you have a ton of napkins or wet wipes to clean yourself up after devouring a pile of these!


 Sweet and Sticky Grilled Chicken Wings
Serves 2 generously as a meal

1 kg Chicken Wings
1/4 cup Honey
2 tbsp Soy Sauce
2 tbsp Orange Juice
Zest of 1 Orange
1 clove Garlic, minced

Mix all ingredients into a ziplock bag or large dish and toss in wings. Let marinate in the fridge for a minimum of 1 hour or overnight. Remove from the fridge about 30-45 minutes before cooking. Heat grill on high heat. Turn down to medium and place wings on grill. Grill for approximately 8 minutes on each side until the wings are nicely marked and beautifully sticky!
