Marinade

Method

Marinating the Wings

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken Wings

    Add the chicken wings to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the wings and marinade to a resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

Grilling the Wings

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).

  2. 4

    Grill the Wings

    Remove the chicken wings from the marinade, allowing the excess marinade to drip off. Place the wings on the grill and cook for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are crispy and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).

  3. 5

    Serve

    Once cooked, remove the wings from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
