Mama’s Jollof Honey-Glazed Wings

Meet your new go-to wings! These babies are perfectly spiced, honeyed-up, and glazed with Mama’s Jollof magic. Easy to make, hard to share! When we developed our winning Jollof Simmer Sauce recipe way before launching, each of us took our unmarked Jars of Jollof Simmer Sauce and experimented with different things to transform our sauce into outside of Jollof Rice. We unanimously created a Jollof Wing recipe that was so amazing we knew everyone would love it. It is tangy, smokey, and sweet. Trust us, when you make this, you may not want to share with anyone.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup Mama's Jollof Simmer Sauce
  • 2 tsp Mama’s Holy Grail Spice Blend
  • 12 chicken wings, cleaned and washed
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • 2 tsp butter
  • Chopped green onions, for garnish

Servings: This meal will comfortably feed 4 people.

Directions

  1. Marinate the Magic: In a mixing bowl, add your chicken wings, then drizzle in the oil and sprinkle on the Holy Grail Spice Blend, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Toss until the wings are thoroughly coated, then let them soak up that goodness for 15 minutes.
  2. Get Crispy: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for 2 minutes. Place the wings in a single layer, and let them cook at 400°F for 10 minutes. Flip them over, then give them another 8 minutes. Want a little extra crunch? Go for an extra 3 minutes.
  3. Make the Glaze: While the wings cook, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Once melted, add the Jollof Simmer Sauce and honey, then whisk until silky smooth. You’ll know it’s ready when it smells irresistible!
  4. Coat and Serve: Remove the wings from the air fryer and place them in a mixing bowl. Pour the honeyed Jollof glaze over the wings and toss until every inch is coated in that saucy goodness.
  5. Finish with Flair: Arrange the wings on a serving plate, drizzle with any remaining sauce, and sprinkle with green onions. Dig in and enjoy the flavor explosion!

Perfect for gatherings or anytime you’re craving that sweet-‘n-spicy kick!
