Pineapple Barbeque Chicken Wings
Pineapple Barbeque Chicken Wings
This week, we are featuring a recipe of Pineapple Barbeque Chicken Wings that Chef Katy created for our Certified Organic chicken wings and pasture-raised poultry. This recipe uses a combination of pineapple with a spicy kick from chilli paste as an alternative to BBQ sauce. The light charring of the chicken skin is what we love most about grilled wings (although oven-baking instructions are also included). Enjoy!
