Peruvian Sweet n' Spicy Chicken Wings Recipe - Brasa Peruvian Kitchen

Chicken: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Set aside a greased baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Using the paper towel, dry the chicken wings to eliminate moisture. 

Put the chicken wings in a bowl. Add melted butter, sesame oil, garlic powder, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper. Toss the wings well to coat. Place wings on the oven tray and bake for 55 minutes. Flip over chicken wings halfway through. 


Sauce:While the chicken is baking, make the sauce. Add ¼ cup of salted butter to a heated pan. Once the butter is melted, add the crushed pepper, ginger and flour to the pan. Whisk mixture around the pan for 2 minutes. Add lime juice, honey or syrup, soy sauce, vinegar and Aji Panca. Whisk the sauce until it comes to a boil. Set aside the sauce for the chicken wings. 


Once chicken wings are baked and cooled, add them to a bowl and pour sauce over them. Toss the chicken wings in the sauce and serve immediately.
