ingredients

  • 3 pounds chicken wings (about 21 to 22 wings), separated at joints, wing tips discarded
  • 1/2 cup tequila
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1/4 cup lime juice, fresh
  • 1/4 cup orange juice, fresh
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 tablespoons cracked fresh pepper
  • 3 large cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons Tabasco sauce, to taste
  • 1 teaspoons orange zest, grated
  • 1 teaspoons lime zest, grated
  • 2 long strips orange zest, curled into spirals for garnish

directions

Step 1

Rinse chicken wings and pat dry with paper towels. Lay in a single layer in a large glass baking dish.

Step 2

In a bowl, combine remaining ingredients except orange zest spirals, lime wedges, and cilantro sprigs for garnish. Pour mixture over the chicken wings. Cover and refrigerate overnight, turning chicken wings several times.

Step 3

Next Day: Preheat oven to 350°F

Step 4

Remove chicken wings from marinade and arrange in a large shallow roasting pan. Bake chicken wings for 30 minutes.

Step 5

Meanwhile, pour marinade into a saucepan, place on the stove and bring to a full boil; reduce by half, stirring occasionally, about 6 minutes. Set aside.

Step 6

Remove the wings from the oven and preheat the broiler.

Step 7

Brush the wings with the reduced marinade and broil, 4 to 6 inches from source of heat, until wings are crisp and brown, turning wings 2 or 3 times and brushing with marinade.

Step 8

To serve, arrange the wings on a heated serving platter. Garnish with spirals of orange zest, lime wedges, and cilantro sprigs. Serve warm.
