Instructions
Chicken Wings
- Preheat oven to 400℉.

- Line cooking racks with aluminum foil. Spray cooking racks with nonstick spray. Add chicken wings on cookie racks - without overcrowding.
- Bake uncovered at 400℉ for 45 minutes. Turn over chicken wings and cook for another 25 minutes. Take out the oven and set to the side.
Mango Chipotle Sauce
- While the chicken wings are baking, begin making the sauce. On medium heat add frozen mangos to a large sauce pan.
- Next add butter, lemon juice, honey, mango chipotle seasoning, mango pepper, and water. Stir and simmer on medium-low for 20 minutes.
- Using a blender, puree the mixture until it becomes a sauce. Mix the sauce over the wings. Add to a separate cookie sheet lined with aluminum foil, and bake at 425℉ for 10 minutes to allow the sauce to become carmelized and sticky.
- Remove chicken from the pan and top with parsley and sesame seeds as a garnish (optional).
