RECIPE - Chili Lime Chicken Wings



I love chicken wings, but I cant stand buffalo sauce, so this is a great recipe for me! When I worked at the hospital, we had food days all the time, and my friend would always bring these chicken wings...they are too die for!  Not hot, but just a tiny bit of spice, with a big tang of lime....and they aren't fried!  So good.....one batch just isnt enough!

CHILI-LIME CHICKEN WINGS

1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 pounds chicken wings
3 tablespoons olive oil
several limes, cut into wedges


Recipe yield: About 14 pieces !  In a small bowl, combine all your spices.  If you like individual drummettes cut your wings up.  Arrange the wings in a baking pan, and brush them with the olive oil. Now sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over your wings.   Roast at 375°F (190°C) for at least 45 minutes, and an hour isn't likely to hurt. You want them crispy!   Or, if you have a rotisserie with a basket, that's a great way to cook these, as well.  Serve hot, with wedges of lime to squeeze over the wings.
