Top Secret Honey-Lime Chicken Wing Sauce ! image

My best friend and I are culinary students and came up with this recipe while we were in culinary school. It really goes with everything... Chicken... French Fries... Honesty, I would put this s**t on everything... : ) I was to point out that most of these ingredients can be added to taste. The sauce is AMAZING and now the only wing sauce I use.

Time 35m

Yield 2-4 cups, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 -12 ounces hot sauce
1/2 cup butter
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (or more to taste)
3 garlic cloves (I usually like 4)
3 fresh limes
1 tablespoon lime zest
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons honey
salt and pepper
red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • in a sauce pan saute garlic, cilantro, and half cup of butter until soft, then add bottle of hot sauce.(i use a hot sauce that also doubles as a buffalo wing sauce because i like the extra vinegar, my fave is Franks) - juice three limes using at least a tablespoon of lime zest, and the juice with pulp. add brown sugar, honey, salt and pepper(s) - (s&p to taste).
  • simmer on stove until you get a deep red color, then pour over chicken wings or dip chicken fingers. THIS IS DELICIOUS ! The real secret of this recipe is getting that clear-red result after the simmer.
  • *butter correction made*.
