When the chicken wings are charred, crispy, and juicy, enjoy them with grilled sweet corn, and a rice noodle salad, packed with plenty of summer vegetables (here’s a couple of examples: Rice Noodle Salad with Spicy Lemongrass Dressing or Rice Noodle Salad with Grilled Satay Shrimp).

And don’t forget to serve with the spicy Chili-Garlic Dipping Sauce!

Thai Grilled Chicken Wings with Chili-Garlic Dipping Sauce
by Season with Spice
Serves 4

Ingredients: 
16 chicken wings
3 tbsp of a good quality fish sauce
2.5 tbsp coconut palm sugar
1 tbsp oyster sauce
2.5 tbsp of Season with Spice’s Thai BBQ Seasoning

Chili-Garlic Dipping Sauce: 
1/4 cup chili-garlic sauce
2 tsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp freshly squeeze lime juice
1 tbsp crushed peanuts, or more
Fresh cilantro – roughly chopped

Method: 
1. In a large shallow dish, combine fish sauce, coconut sugar, and oyster sauce. Add in the chicken wings, and coat well. Then season with our Thai BBQ Seasoning – making sure each wing is coated evenly on all sides. Let marinate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
2. When ready to grill, remove the chicken wings from the marinade 30 minutes before cooking. Drain off any excess marinade.
3. Preheat grill on medium heat. Coating the grill with oil before placing the wings on the grill prevents the wings from sticking.
4. Brush oil on grates, and place chicken wings on the grill. Grill the chicken for about 15-18 minutes. While grilling, baste the wings lightly with some oil (try toasted sesame oil), and turn the wings occasionally so the meat cooks evenly on all sides. The wings are done when nicely charred and cooked through.
5. While the chicken is grilling, combine the ingredients for the Chili Garlic Dipping Sauce. Serve together, and enjoy!
