Sweet and Sour Chicken Wings (AIP, Paleo)

Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time45 minutes
Total Time55 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 lb chicken wings, drumettes & flats separated
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 cup coconut aminos
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, packed
  • 1/4 cup chopped chives, plus more for garnish
  • 1 tbsp raw honey (omit for sugar detox)
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • Juice and zest of 1/2 lemon
  • 1 inch piece of fresh ginger
  • 3 cloves of garlic (omit for low FODMAP)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Sprinkle the wings with salt and toss gently to coat.
  • Place the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 40 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • While the wings are baking, place the rest of the ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth.
  • Pour out the sauce in a saucepan and heat over medium heat. Once boiling, bring the heat to medium low to bring the sauce to simmer.
  • Whisk the sauce frequently until it's thickened and reduced to half. Pour out the sauce into a large bowl.
  • Once the chicken is done, add the wings to the sauce and toss until well coated.
  • Optional: Place back in the oven and broil for 3 minutes for extra crispy skin.
  • Garnish with more chopped chives before serving.
