Mango, Peach and Habanero Hot Wings!

by Emily Hester
This is the perfect habanero wing sauce.  It is tangy, a little bit sweet, clingy and fruity, and so so spicy!  Here is how you do it: 
Mango-Peach and Habanero Hot Wings
Wings
20 flats and drumettes
1 Tbsp. baking powder (NOT baking soda)
1/2 tsp. salt
Sauce
2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
3 Tbsp. Emily’s Original Habanero Hot Sauce
3 Tbsp. HEB Peach & Mango Fruit Spread (feel free to sub in peach, mango or pineapple if that is what you have in the fridge)
3/4 tsp. salt
Instructions
  • Preheat air fryer to 400°F.
  • In a large bowl, use your hands to toss the flats and drumettes with the baking powder and 1/2 tsp. salt until chicken is evenly coated. But do not add extra baking powder. Just mix them so they all have some.
  • Place wings in the air fryer in single layer and cook for 25 minutes at 400°F, flipping 1/2 way through.
  • While the wings are cooking combine butter, Emily’s Original Habanero Hot Sauce, fruit spread, and 3/4 tsp. salt in a sauce pan. Melt over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is simmering and slightly thickened. Set aside in a large bowl.
  • When the wings are done transfer to the sauce bowl and toss. Serve while hot!
