Chicken Hot Wings

Grilled Chicken wings recipe incorporates a lot of different chilis, spices, lime juice, vinegar and olive oil to infuse the amazing smoky grilled flavor.

I love the smoky flavor of coals instead of gas grilling. I know it takes longer to get the grilling going but it's worth the extra time.

Set the coals to the lowest level away from the grill surface so chicken don't get burned fast. Placing the chicken wings in the lowest heat of the grill side will allow to slow cook and get a nice caramelized crust. Close the grill lid and rotate frequently the wings using long handles tongues to ensure the meat cooks evenly.

Serve with potato salad, ranch dressing, hot sauce or vegetables.
