Sweet and Spicy Grilled Chicken Wings

Sweet and Spicy Grilled Chicken Wings

These wings are hot! The spiciness will vary greatly though, depending on the heat of the chili flakes you are using, and the barbecue sauce you select. This recipe also works well for boneless skinless breasts or thighs.

These Sonoran style sweet and spicy chicken wings are hot! But, the spiciness of these grilled chicken wings will vary greatly, depending on the heat of the chile flakes you are using, and the barbecue sauce you select. This recipe also works well for chicken breasts or thighs. Choose a barbecue sauce that doesn't list high fructose corn syrup as the first ingredient (or preferably at all). I use Sweet Baby Ray's.  I use smoked sea salt in a grinder for my everyday salt. A two pound bag costs about $17.00 and lasts for about a year. I think it makes everything taste better.
