Introducing MaryGold’s Valentina Grilled Chicken Wings, a happy hour exclusive only found at the bar starting at 5 p.m. The crispy shareable is brined in a salt solution for four hours to keep the meat moist and tender while adding excellent flavor. The wings are ideal for a spicy, grilled taste of summer.

Ingredients:

  • Chicken Wings
  • 5% Salt Brine (5% salt to water ratio, plus preferred aromatics)
  • Ancho Chili Rub (recipe below)
  • Valentina Black Label Extra Hot Sauce
  • Kewpie Mayo
  • Scallions (thinly sliced on a bias)
  • Crispy Garlic
  • Lime wedge

  • 10g sweet paprika
  • 10g garlic powder
  • 10g onion powder
  • 5g cumin powder
  • 5g oregano
  • 50g salt
  • Combine ingredients in a bowl

Method:

  1. Brine chicken wings in the 5% salt solution for four hours.
  2. Remove the wings from the brine and pat dry or air dry in the refrigerator overnight.
  3. Season the wings generously with the ancho chili rub.
  4. Grill over medium-low heat until wings are cooked through.
  5. Finish over medium-high heat just slightly to char the wing for the finish.

  7. Garnish the wings with scallions, crispy garlic and serve with lime wedge.
