Lemongrass infused Thai Party Wings are grilled and tossed with a blend of sweet and spicy Thai inspired ingredients that really pack in the flavor!
My family has a thing for chicken wings. Every so often, I like to switch up the flavor profile like these Thai inspired party wings. For me, wings have to be crispy on the outside, tender on the inside and packed with flavor. It’s a three part process consisting of marinading, grilling/frying/baking and finishing off with a toss in the bowl with desired sauce.
It’s ALL ABOUT the Lemongrass
Lemongrass is the key ingredient for infusing these wings with out of this world flavor. The lemony flavor really lifts these wings to another level, together with fresh ginger and lots of garlic. You can usually find lemongrass stalks in your grocery store. It’s next to ginger root in the produce section. Often when you get the stalks from the grocery, they have a hard woody exterior. Remove a few of the outer layers until you get down to a softer inner core. This is an important step as lemongrass stalks are fibrous and the outer layers are inedible.
