Mango Habanero Wings
Whether you’re watching the Superbowl or True Detective this Sunday, I’ve got the perfect (and easiest) meal for you! It seriously has 2 ingredients & it’s budget friendly, so you could technically feed the whole block for cheap if you really wanted!
I made these drumsticks & wings both in the oven and air fryer! If you haven’t noticed via Instagram, I LOVE my air fryer. I’m absolutely no pro, but I am having so much fun experimenting with it!
Okay, back to the wings. I technically bought drumsticks and then wings— but not like miniature ones you get from BWWs. For some reason I don’t think I have ever realized that those wings are just the chicken wings cut in half— OOPS!
So for this recipe, I used a mix of chicken drumsticks and wings sprinkled with the mango habanero wing seasoning from Wal Mart. EASY PEASY!
Mango Habanero Wings
Ingredients
2-3 lbs of chicken (mix of wings & drumsticks)
1 packet Great Value Mango Habanero Wing Seasoning
Cilantro, optional for garnishing
Preparation
Pat chicken dry with a paper towel and add to a large bowl
Add seasoning packet to chicken, mix making sure chicken is evenly coated- cover and let marinade for at least 30 minutes
Air Fryer Method
Preheat Air Fryer to 390F for 3 minutes
Add chicken to the basket, I stood my drumsticks up to make more room
Spray with olive oil
Cook for 20-22 minutes, shaking/flipping halfway through and giving it another spray of olive oil
Oven Method
Preheat oven to 425F
Place chicken on parchment lined pan
Bake for 20-22 minutes
Turn oven to broil- cook for 1 minute then flip and cook for 2 minutes
Sprinkle with chopped cilantro
The internal temperature of your chicken should be 165F when done
These wings pair great with cilantro ranch (I used the one from Trader Joe’s) and my sweet potato fries
