Chipotle Grilled Wings are coated in a smoky, spicy-sweet chipotle marinade, rested overnight, then grilled and served with a creamy blue cheese yogurt dip.

Directions
  • Step 1

    In a mini blender, combine the chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, garlic, Dijon mustard, paprika, smoked chipotle pepper, black pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, honey, red wine vinegar, oil, and cilantro. Blend until combined.

  • Step 2

    Defrost the chicken wings if frozen and pat them dry. Place the wings in a large clean resealable bag.

  • Step 3

    Pour the chipotle marinade over the wings. Seal the bag and shake or turn it until all of the wings are evenly coated.

  • Step 4

    Refrigerate the marinated wings overnight.

  • Step 5

    Grill the wings until browned, lightly charred, and cooked through, turning as needed for even cooking.

  • Step 6

    For the blue cheese yogurt dip, combine the yogurt, green onions, red onion, blue cheese, salt, and freshly cracked black pepper in a medium bowl.

  • Step 7

    Mix the dip well and serve alongside the hot grilled wings.
