These chicken wings are marinated in a delightful mix of tequila and lime, giving them a unique kick that sets them apart from traditional wing flavors. Whether you’re celebrating Cinco de Mayo or just looking for a fun appetizer, these wings are a must-try!

Zesty Tequila Lime Chicken Wings ### Ingredients:

2 lbs chicken wings
1/4 cup tequila
1/4 cup lime juice (freshly squeezed)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons honey
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

In a large mixing bowl, combine tequila, lime juice, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
Add the chicken wings to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using an oven, preheat to 425°F (220°C).
Remove the wings from the marinade and discard the marinade. Arrange the wings on the grill or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Grill the wings for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are cooked through and have a nice char. If baking, place in the oven for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through for even cooking.
Once fully cooked, remove the wings from the grill or oven and let them rest for a few minutes.
Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Enjoy these flavorful Zesty Tequila Lime Chicken Wings at your next event! With their unique taste and appealing presentation, they are sure to be a hit. Happy cooking!
