- Clear
Directions
- In a bowl, combine 1/4 cup cilantro, 2 tablespoons lime juice, avocado oil, lime zest and chili powder, then set aside.
- In a large bowl, add chicken wings and pour on the cilantro marinade. Toss chicken until covered completely in the marinade. Season chicken with 2 teaspoons or more of Tony’s Original Creole Seasoning. Set bowl in fridge and let marinate for two hours or overnight.
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Take wings out of fridge. Coat a cast iron skillet with avocado oil and set burner to medium-high heat.
- Once heated, add wings to skillet and sear for 5-8 minutes on both sides. You’re not trying to cook them through at this point, but just getting a nice color/char all over the wings.
- Place wings on a baking sheet with wire rack and place in the oven. Let them cook for 15 minutes, then flip and cook for another 15 minutes.
- Remove wings from oven, squeeze on some more lime juice and garnish with fresh cilantro. Enjoy!
