Chef notes
Chef Gordon Ramsay's cool yogurt dipping sauce helps temper the heat of his hot and spicy chicken wings.
Preparation
For the spicy chicken wings:
Preheat oven to 375°F. In a small saucepan, whisk together the honey, 1/2 cup olive oil, harissa, and lime zest and juice. Bring to a simmer and remove from heat and set aside.
Toss the chicken wings with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Place the chicken wings standing up on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper and bake 25-30 minutes until the chicken is just cooked.
Remove the wings from the oven and brush liberally with the harissa glaze. Return to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes until golden.
For the cilantro lime yogurt dipping sauce:
In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, lime zest and juice, cilantro and garlic. Season with salt to taste.
For serving:
Sprinkle the wings with sesame seeds and green onions and serve along side yogurt dipping sauce.
