Why Go Out? - Garlic Lime Wings

In the mood for wings, but sick of the same old 'hot sauce and butter' combo? Not to worry. Here's a tasty sauce I invented when I was doing a cookout for some friends. Here's what you'll need:
  • Juice of 6 fresh limes
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 3 tbsp. honey (yes, the stuff in the bear is fine)
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Chicken wings (flats & drumettes; 20-30)
Combine all of the ingredients in a large sealable tupperware (or, mix completely in a large bowl and transfer to a large sealable freezer bag). Set aside in the refrigerator for at least an hour. Get your grill on, cook them dead chickens, and promptly toss them in the sauce; serve immediately. Enjoy.


Now, if you want to fry the wings, that's up to you. I can't vouch for the oil and sauce mixture as I haven't tried it yet. This is almost a 'healthier' wing, if you will. It's definitely different, and I know your friends will love them. Mine did (of course, mine tend to placate me, so they may have been full of crap.)


Still, with food this da(m)n good....why go out?
