• STEP 6.Serve the Malaysian barbecue chicken wings hot, garnished with chopped cilantro and lime wedges for squeezing over the wings.

Cooking Tips

• For extra heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chopped fresh chili to the marinade.
• If you don't have a grill, you can also bake the wings in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• To make the wings extra crispy, you can broil them for a few minutes after grilling to get a charred and caramelized exterior.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover wings can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the wings on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through.
• Serve the wings as an appetizer or as part of a main course with steamed rice and a side of vegetables.
