Delicious and Spicy Oaxaca Chicken Wings
Oaxaca Chicken Wings are a flavorful dish inspired by the rich culinary traditions of Oaxaca, Mexico. These wings are marinated with Oaxacan spices and then baked to perfection, resulting in a crispy exterior and juicy, tender meat inside. The accompanying spicy and smoky dipping sauce adds an extra layer of zest to every bite.
Ingredients:
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup lime juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- For the dipping sauce:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, minced
- 1 tablespoon adobo sauce
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
Instructions:
- Marinate the Wings: In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, lime juice, olive oil, chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken wings and toss to coat them evenly with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
- Bake the Wings: Arrange the marinated chicken wings in a single layer on the wire rack. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning the wings halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Prepare the Dipping Sauce: While the wings are baking, prepare the dipping sauce. In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, minced chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, and lime juice. Mix well until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
- Serve: Once the wings are done, remove them from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and serve hot with the spicy dipping sauce on the side.
