chicken wings are perfect for a quick and tasty meal that everyone will love. With simple ingredients and easy grilling, you’ll have juicy, flavorful wings ready in no time!
Ingredients
- 1 (12 fluid ounce) bottle hot wing sauce (such as "Louisiana"® Wing Sauce)
- 24 chicken wings, or more as needed
Step 1
Put the wings in a glass or plastic bowl. Pour the hot sauce over them, then cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Pop it in the fridge and let the wings marinate for at least 2 hours, but if you have more time, up to 12 hours is even better. Give the wings a stir now and then so they soak up all that flavor.
Step 2
When you’re ready to cook, heat your grill to medium-high and brush the grate with a little oil to keep the wings from sticking. Place the wings on the grill and cook them for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally and brushing with any leftover marinade to keep them juicy and flavorful.
Step 3
Keep grilling and turning the wings for another 5 to 7 minutes until they’re nicely browned and cooked through—no pink in the middle. Once they’re done, take them off the grill and enjoy!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen chicken wings for this recipe?
Yes, but make sure to fully thaw them before marinating and grilling for even cooking.
How do I know when the wings are fully cooked?
The wings should be browned with no pink inside and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Can I marinate the wings longer than 12 hours?
It's best not to exceed 12 hours, as the acidity in the sauce can start to break down the meat texture.
What if I don’t have a grill?
You can bake the wings in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 40-45 minutes, turning halfway through.
Should I remove the wings from the marinade before grilling?
You can place them directly on the grill, but avoid excessive dripping by letting excess marinade drip off.
Can I use a different sauce instead of hot wing sauce?
Yes, you can substitute with your favorite wing or barbecue sauce for a different flavor.
How do I prevent the wings from sticking to the grill?
Brush the grill grate with oil before cooking and turn the wings regularly to avoid sticking.
Can I prepare the wings ahead of time?
Yes, marinate them in advance and keep them covered in the fridge until ready to grill.
