Sweet and Savory Honey Chicken Wings from Ohana

My family and I love to eat chicken wings, and one of our favorites styles is served at 'Ohana at Disney's Polynesian Resort. The wings at 'Ohana are sweet and savory with just a little heat, drenched in a honey coriander sauce that makes you want to just keep eating more of them. I will not try to estimate how many of these wings I have actually consumed over the years, but I venture to say it's a lot. So I was very excited to try making this recipe in my own home.

Ingredients

  • Ingredients:
  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 1 ¾ cups honey
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 2 fresh limes
  • ¼ cup coriander
  • ¼ cup ground ginger
  • 1/8 cup chili powder

Instructions

  • First, you'll want to cook your chicken wings. I seasoned mine with a little salt and pepper, laid them in a couple of roasting pans and cooked them at 450 degrees for about 20 minutes. At this point, I removed the wings, flipped them over, and returned them to the oven for another 15 minutes.
  • While the chicken is cooking, zest each of the limes. Combine the lime zest with the honey, soy sauce, ginger, chili powder and coriander in a saucepan. Heat the sauce over medium heat until it comes to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
  • When your wings are cooked, remove them from the oven and place them into a deep dish or bowl. Then, pour the sauce onto the wings through a strainer (to remove the hard shells of the coriander). The coriander seasoning will be within the sauce even without the shells. Season with sale/pepper to taste. We also added some freshly chopped green onion to ours.
