Wings are always so good and there are a number of ways to cook them. But when it comes to the grill this is hands down our favorite recipe. We use a lot of seasoning but it does a great job of adding the perfect flavor. We tend to make these all summer long and they are great for either lunch or dinner. Everything you need for making these delicious chicken wings can be found down below. Enjoy!!
What you need to make crispy grilled chicken wings + substitutions:
- Chicken wings- We usually find our chicken wings at Costco or Whole Foods. We love both options, but use whatever you prefer. Make sure you dry out your wings very well. That is what helps them get even crispier!
- Franks RedHot sauce- Franks RedHot is our go-to for hot sauce. The original flavor is our favorite because it is the perfect blend of flavor and heat and the ingredients are simple: cayenne red peppers, distilled vinegar, water, salt and garlic powder.
- Sea salt- We use sea salt for every single thing we make. Sweet and savory because it brings out the flavor. Our favorite brand of sea salt is hands down Redmond! We even recently got a discount code daddioskitchen for 15% off!
- Black pepper- An essential seasoning that is a different kind of spicy from say a chili pepper.
- Garlic powder- Another essential seasoning that adds great flavor especially as a dry rub like these chicken wings.
- Coriander powder- Coriander is dried cilantro or coriander seeds. When combined in a powder and dried it adds great flavor.
- Onion powder- A great seasoning for vegetables, meat, seafood and salad dressings.
- Lime- An acidic flavor with a distinct sour taste that brightens the wings flavor.
