Ingredients

3 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoon fish sauce
¼ cup whiskey
½ lime, juiced
2 teaspoon garlic, minced
2 teaspoon ginger root, peeled + grated
1 chili pepper, jalapeno, serrano or bird's eye
2 pounds chicken wings, wingettes + drumettes
kosher salt + fresh cracked pepper
lime wedges, slices of chili pepper, fresh cilantro, optional garnishes

Instructions

Preheat your grill on high. (Reduce to medium-low for cooking.)
Combine all the ingredients except for the chicken in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves. As soon as it begins to boil, reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer for about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the burner and set aside.
Season the chicken with salt + pepper and grill them over medium-low heat for about 20-25 minutes until cooked through and the skin in nice and crispy. Turn them every 5 minutes and move them around the grill to ensure even cooking.
Toss the wings and half the sauce in a bowl until nicely coated. Remove them to a platter. Garnish with lime wedges, sliced chili or cilantro if you’d like. Serve the remaining sauce on the side.
