Equipment you will need

oven
Blender or food processor
large mixing bowl
Baking Tray
Aluminum Foil
Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds chicken wings (tips removed, drumettes and flats separated)
  • 2 numbers mangoes (Ripe, peeled and pitted)
  • 2-3 habanero peppers (seeds removed (adjust to taste))
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice (juice of 2 limes )
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and black pepper (to taste)
  • Olive oil or cooking spray

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Make the Sauce: In a blender, combine mangoes, habanero peppers, garlic, onion, honey, lime juice, paprika, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
  • Prepare the Wings: In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with the mango habanero sauce. Reserve some sauce for basting.
  • Marinate: Cover and refrigerate the wings for at least 2 hours, or overnight for deeper flavor.
  • Bake the Wings: Line a baking tray with aluminum foil and lightly grease it with olive oil or cooking spray. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the tray.
  • Cook: Bake the wings in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Halfway through, baste the wings with the reserved sauce.
  • Serve: Allow the wings to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with extra sauce, if desired.

Notes

Handling Habaneros: Wear gloves when handling habaneros to avoid skin irritation.
Sauce Consistency: If the sauce is too thick, add a little water to thin it out.
Marinating Time: For best flavor, let the wings marinate overnight.
Checking Doneness: The internal temperature of the wings should reach 165°F (74°
