Chipotle BBQ Wings are a smoky and spicy twist on classic BBQ wings, perfect for a flavorful appetizer or main dish. These wings are coated in a tangy chipotle barbecue sauce that will tantalize your taste buds.

Ingredients

• Chicken wings - 500 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Chipotle in adobo sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Ketchup - 1/4 cup

• Apple cider vinegar - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Onion powder - 1 teaspoon
• Smoked paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
3. Place the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer.
4. Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
5. While the wings are baking, prepare the chipotle BBQ sauce by combining chipotle in adobo sauce, ketchup, honey, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika in a saucepan over medium heat.
6. Bring the sauce to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and let it cook for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
