Mango Habanero Wings 🥭🔥😋
Oh YES, please! If you’re a big fan of chicken wings, then these have gotta go on your must-make-this-weekend list!
Spicy & Sweet plus incredible insane flavors thanks to all those spices and this special layering method.
Our Mango Habanero Sauce transforms a basic chicken wing into something complex, satisfying, and totally snackable.
Your crew will completely DEVOUR these lil’ babies!
All of these flavors are surprisingly complementary — so they actually enhance each other.
While you tend to get “hits” of spicy or sweet flavors, you’ll also get a whole lotta flavor that is deep, complex, and very satisfying.
That’s what “layering” flavors is all about in this recipe.
🍋 ALWAYS use freshly-squeezed lime juice from an actual fresh lime. Bottled lime juice from the store will give your wings a strange metallic or overly acidic taste.
Want to get the most juice possible from each of your fresh limes? Of course, we do!
Here’s a quick trick:
On your counter or a cutting board, press and roll the lime back and forth very firmly with your hands.
The rolling loosens and breaks down some of the citrus membranes and makes the outside a little more pliable. This makes it easier to squeeze which also means you’ll likely get more juice from your squeeze.
Let me know how this works for you!
NOTE: Heat preference is a personal preference so use more habanero peppers for extra heat and less for a milder sauce.
Leftovers:
- Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to three days.
Serving Size:

Additional Toppings:

6 servings
Ingredients:
- 4 lbs fresh chicken wings
- 4 Tbsps Arrowroot powder, potato starch, or cornstarch
- sea salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tsps smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
Mango Habanero Sauce:
- 2-3 whole habanero peppers, seeded
- 1 medium very ripe mango, diced
- 1/4 cup raw honey
- 4 fresh garlic cloves
- 1 medium onion, roughly chopped
- sea salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 fresh limes, juiced
- 2 Tbsps apple cider vinegar
Instructions:
Remove your chicken wings from the fridge about 20-30 minutes before preparing. They cook more evenly when they are not cold.
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees f. and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
Blot any moisture off of your chicken wings using paper towels.
Place your chicken wings in a large bowl and sprinkle with the arrowroot powder or cornstarch, sea salt, pepper, and all of the seasonings.
Toss well to evenly coat each wing well, then place them in a single layer on your prepared sheet pan with space between each.
Roast for 35-40 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a high-speed blender or food processor, add all of your mango-habanero ingredients.
Process until very smooth.
Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven and drizzle the wings with your mango-habanero sauce and carefully toss to combine.
Place the pan back into the oven and continue to roast for 15 minutes, until the wings are golden-brown, and the sauce is sticky.
Enjoy while hot!
