Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

¾ cup tamarind purée
¼ cup fish sauce
2 Tbsp. light or dark brown sugar
1 Tbsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1 tsp. ground cumin
3 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, divided
4 lb. chicken wings, drumettes and flats separated if desired
¼ small red onion, very thinly sliced, preferably on a mandoline
Cilantro leaves with tender stems and lime wedges (for serving)

Steps:

Whisk tamarind purée, fish sauce, brown sugar, red pepper flakes, cumin, and 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a medium bowl until combined and a loose paste forms. Set tamarind glaze aside.
Pat wings dry with paper towels, then season all over with remaining 2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt. Place in a large bowl; add half of tamarind glaze and toss to coat. Chill 15 minutes. Set remaining glaze aside.
Meanwhile, place onion in a bowl of ice water and set aside.
Prepare a grill for medium indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off). Arrange wings on grate over indirect heat, making sure not to overcrowd. Brush top of each wing with some reserved glaze. Cover and grill 15 minutes. Uncover, turn wings over, and brush other side with glaze. Re-cover and grill until wings are golden brown and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a wing registers 165°F, about 15 minutes.
Brush wings with more glaze, then move over direct heat and grill until charred in spots, 1-2 minutes per side.
Transfer wings to a platter. Drain onion and place on paper towels; pat dry. Scatter onion over wings and top with cilantro. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.

CRISPY GRILLED WINGS

Crispy Grilled Wings image

My family is full of chicken-wing fiends. If there's a wing-eating contest, my husband is entering. Same goes for our 9-year-old daughter, who's very proud of her record (16 wings). Our preference is crispy wings, which can be achieved on the grill with cornstarch. -Audrey Alfaro, Boise, Idaho

Tips:

Choose the right wings: Look for wings that are plump and have a good amount of meat on them. Avoid wings that are too small or have a lot of bones.
Marinate the wings: Marinating the wings in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs will help to tenderize them and add flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple mixture of olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper is always a good choice.
Grill the wings over indirect heat: This will help to prevent them from burning. If you are using a charcoal grill, place the wings on the side of the grill opposite the coals. If you are using a gas grill, turn off one or two of the burners and place the wings on the unlit side.
Baste the wings with the glaze: This will help to keep them moist and add a delicious flavor. You can use a variety of glazes, but a simple mixture of cherry preserves, honey, and soy sauce is always a good choice.
Serve the wings hot: Grilled cherry glazed chicken wings are best served hot off the grill. You can serve them with a variety of dipping sauces, such as ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or honey mustard.

Grilled cherry glazed chicken wings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they are sure to be a hit with your friends and family.
