Sweet and Sticky Thai Chicken Wings

Sweet and Sticky Thai Chicken Wings

These Sweet and Sticky Thai Chicken Wings were done in our smoker.

If the saying is true “You are what you eat…” then there’s a pretty good chance my husband and I are chicken wings.

Almost every weekend this summer we have come up with different recipes for chicken wings.

And they are ALL my favorites, seriously could not pick just one.

They have a sweet, spicy, smoky flavor that will make you do a happy dance for sure!

How to Make Sweet and Sticky Thai Chicken Wings

I marinated them overnight.

Marinade is soy sauce, lime juice, garlic powder, and brown sugar.

Then into the smoker set at 250 degrees for two and a half  hours.

They could also be baked in the oven at 400 degrees for 45 minutes.

Either way, flip them halfway through the cook time.

As the chicken wings were in the smoker, I made a sweet and sticky Thai glaze.

Soy sauce, sweet Thai chili sauce, honey, lime, ginger paste, garlic paste, Sriracha, and red curry paste.

Just bring all of these delicious ingredients together in a saucepan.

Bring to a boil, and simmer for about 10 minutes, whisking often.

At this point I didn’t know what smelled better.

YUM!

I brushed some of the glaze on the wings after they smoked for 2 and a half hours.

And let them smoke for an additional 10 minutes with the glaze.
