Yield: 9 servings

Description

A tangy, sweet-but-tart honey-lime coating gives these wings a refreshingly zingy way to fly--right into your mouth! These fried wings are straightforward, sweet, and sour.

Ingredients

18 whole chicken wings, split
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon grated lime zest
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 quarts vegetable oil for frying

Directions

1 In a large bowl, mix together the honey, lime juice, lime peel, garlic, salt and ground black pepper.
2 Place the flour in a plastic bag and shake the chicken wings in the flour to coat.
3 In a large skillet, fry the chicken wings in hot, 1 inch deep oil until cooked through. Place the cooked wings in the honey/lime mixture and toss to coat well. Serve immediately.
