These chicken wings are coated in a flavorful Thai-inspired glaze, offering a perfect balance of sweet and spicy.
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, and grated ginger to prepare the glaze.
Grate the ginger finely to ensure it blends well into the glaze.
Trim any excess skin from the chicken wings and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Drying the wings helps achieve a crispier texture when grilled.
Season the chicken wings with salt and black pepper evenly.
Use your hands to rub the seasoning into the wings for even coverage.
Preheat the grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grates.
Oiling the grates prevents the wings from sticking.
Grill the chicken wings over direct medium heat, turning occasionally, for about 10 minutes until they start to crisp.
Keep an eye on the wings to avoid burning.
Brush the wings with the prepared glaze and continue grilling for another 8-10 minutes, turning and brushing with glaze occasionally.
Apply the glaze in layers to build up flavor.
Serve the wings warm, garnished with fresh cilantro or sesame seeds if desired.
Serve with a side of dipping sauce for extra flavor.
