Honey Chipotle Chicken Wings Recipe

Honey Chipotle Wing Sauce is too simple to make wings this good. The name is the recipe. You will love these wings and make them often.

Honey Chipotle Wing Sauce

The Honey Chipotle Wing Sauce recipe is so simple that, to be honest, I didn’t have much hope that the wings would be any good.

I saw this recipe months ago (On the WolfPit’s YouTube channel) and it stuck in the back of my mind. I love honey and I love chipotles.  Then, a few days ago, I was making a batch of wings that I know we like — Honey Lime Chicken Wings (to test out a dip recipe incidentally — Green Goddess Wing Dip) and the honey made me remember the honey chipotle wing sauce recipe. I found a can of chipotles in adobo sauce in the cupboard and figured I might as well toss a half-dozen or so wings and taste test it while I was at it.

While my girlfriend, son and I LOVED the Honey Chipotle Wings. No lie. Even more than the Honey Lime Chicken Wings

(By the way, we also loved the Green Goddess Wing Dip. It is a drop-dead winner for wings that you should make for your next party.)

As I said, the recipe is super-simple. The sauce has only two ingredients.  The name is the recipe.

The wings I had cooked were naked and they worked well. I think this recipe would work with any of our 6 Basic Wing Recipes. Watch out for breaded if you are taking these to a party. They might get soggy or mealy if the trip is too long. But if you are hosting a party and can cook, sauce and serve them immediately, breaded will be really good.

The recipe below makes enough sauce to comfortably coat about 2 dozen wing pieces. If you are making Honey Chipotle Chicken Wings for a party, you will want to double or even triple this recipe.
