CILANTRO LIME CHICKEN WINGS

I think I might be able to form words. I have been in a land where chicken wings reign supreme. I’ve been having an insane craving for chicken wings. Have you ever been obsessed with something and you over indulge in it. After a time you just can’t- so you take a break? Well Abs loves chicken wings. I mean he would have wings almost everyday if i didn’t put my food down. So after a while I said– no more wings. Then after a respectable time passed( about a couple of weeks) I realised- perhaps I love wings too. More than I thought. So I caved in and made these cilantro lime chicken wings.

It was kind of the perfect time too because the VMA’s were over the weekend. And I sorta- kinda forced my family to watch it with me every year. It all started when I was a teenager. I love music. I loved MTV when i was younger. So I would forced my family to sit through it. 1). Because I always had AMAZING snacks and 2). I always had the remote.

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, paprika and garlic powder. In a large bowl, toss the wings with the salt mixture to evenly coat. If you have time place in a ziplock bag and dry brine overnight.
2. Place the wings on the grill, crowding them together so that they are all touching (this helps to keep the wings juicy). Grill, flipping the wings every 5 minutes, for a total of 20 minutes of cooking.
