#CookOutWeek – Grilled Asian Chicken Wings with Peanut Sauce

Chicken wings are a favorite finger food at most parties and these Grilled Asian Chicken Wings with Peanut Sauce will wow your mouth and your guests at your next party!  Something about grilling the wings brings so much added flavor, along with the overnight marinade.

I like to sear the wings on the grill and finish them in a slow oven for tenderizing and thoroughly cooking them without burning them to a crisp.  You need to preheat your grill to high heat and spray the grate with a high-heat cooking spray so that they don’t stick to your grill.

I used a lot of Vietnamese flavor in the marinade, including garlic, ginger, fish sauce and soy sauce.  You don’t have to marinate them overnight if you don’t have time, but it is best to marinate them for at least an hour so that the meat can absorb a lot of flavor.  Give these awesome wings a try and let me know what you think!
