Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven:

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.

      Prepare the Wings:

        In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until evenly coated.

          Bake the Wings:

            Arrange the wings in a single layer on the wire rack. Bake for about 40-45 minutes, turning halfway through, until the wings are crispy and golden brown.

              Make the Mango Habanero Glaze:

                While the wings are baking, prepare the glaze. In a blender or food processor, combine the diced mango, chopped habanero peppers, honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, lime juice, grated ginger (if using), lime zest, and salt. Blend until smooth.

                  Glaze the Wings:

                    Once the wings are done baking, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the mango habanero glaze over the wings and toss until they are thoroughly coated.

                      Broil for Extra Crispness:

                        Return the glazed wings to the baking sheet and broil on high for an additional 2-3 minutes to set the glaze and add a touch of caramelization. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning.

                          Serve:

                            Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
