Directions
Print Recipe- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Line a baking dish with unbleached parchment paper and place a wire rack sprayed with avocado oil on top.
- In a medium bowl, pat the wings dry and toss them with avocado oil, chili powder, onion powder, ginger powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Ensure an even coating by stirring well.
- Arrange the wings, skin-side down, on the prepared wire rack and lightly spray the tops with avocado oil.
- Bake for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden and cooked through.
- While the wings are baking, prepare the cucumber tomato salad by chopping the cucumber, tomatoes, and olives into bite-sized pieces. Add cucumber, tomato, olives, mint, olive oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper to a large bowl and stir to combine.
- Next, make the sauce for the wings by combining honey, coconut aminos, lime zest with a small dash each of chili powder, onion powder, ginger powder, and garlic powder in a small bowl. Add a little warm water to thin the sauce.
- Remove the wings from the oven and toss them in the honey sauce while still warm.
- Serve the wings sprinkled with chopped green onions and cilantro alongside the salad.
