Ingredients

  • 12 Chicken Wings (24 pieces)
  • 1/4 cup Sweet Chili Sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons Sambal
  • 1 teaspoon Lemongrass Paste
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 Lime, cut in wedges
  • Fresh Cilantro, torn for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 450° F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil. Place a cooling rack in the sheet pan.
  2. Mix all the ingredients - sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, sambal, lemongrass paste, garlic powder, onion powder - in a mixing bowl. Add the chicken wings to the bowl and coat them thoroughly.

  3. Place the wings on the cooling rack in the sheet pan being sure to space them evenly.

    Note: the cooling rack in to allow for air flow during the cooking. If you do not have a cooling rack or one large enough, simply place the wings directly on the sheet pan and just turn them halfway through the cooking.

  4. Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake for 40 minutes. When you take the wings out, turn on the broiler and move the oven rack up.

  5. Place the sheet pan under the broiler for 3-5 minutes to get the wings crispy.
  6. Important! Be sure to watch the wings as they can burn very quickly under the broiler.

  7. Serve with lime wedges and fresh cilantro.
