DifficultyBeginner

While not a big chicken wing lover myself, my husband (Barak)loves them. This is in fact a recipe he made and he decided to grill them instead of frying or baking in the oven. I actually really quite liked them. Perfect accompaniment for watching sports of any kind, or dish the sports just enjoy them. Typically wings go with a blue cheese sauce for dipping but I wanted to create a dairy free option that balances the heat and the richness of the wings and this lemon garlic aioli does just that!

3 lbs fresh chicken drumettes and wings (50 percent of each or all drumettes)

1 ½ tsp baking powder

½ tsp cracked black pepper

1 ½ tsp fine sea salt

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion salt

⅓ cup gluten free hot sauce of your choice or homemade(we used a habanero pepper hot sauce)

3 tbsp melted macadamia nut butter or grass fed butter

½ tbsp raw honey

Garlic Aoili

½ cup vegan or paleo mayonnaise

1 garlic clove, grated fine with microplane grater

1 large lemon juiced

1 large pinch sea salt

Place meat in a medium bowl and add the salt, baking powder and spices. Use your hands to mix to make sure the wings are covered. Combine butter and hot sauce in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until melted.

Bring grill up to temp and grill the wings until they are cooked through, about 10-15 minutes. Coat wings with the sauce and dip in the aioli sauce.

Garlic Aioli Sauce

Use a whisk to mix all of the aioli ingredients together until smooth and set aside. Place in individual small dipping bowls alongside the wings. Enjoy!
