Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken wings
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/4 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp chipotle powder
- 1 lime, zest and juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
In a large zipper bag, toss the chicken wings with the cornstarch. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer the wings onto a nonstick baking sheet. Bake the chicken wings until they begin to brown, about 15 minutes. Flip the wings and continue to cook until they reach an internal temperature of 165ºF, about 15 to 20 minutes. Broil the wings until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3 minutes.
While the wings are baking, in a small saucepan, combine the barbecue sauce, chili powder, ground cumin, chipotle powder, lime zest, and lime juice. Cook, stirring over medium-high heat until everything is well combined and hot.
Once the wings are cooked, transfer them into a large bowl and pour the sauce over the wings. Toss them well to coat each wing evenly.
Serve immediately.
