🔥 Dante’s Inferno Hot Honey Chicken Wings

Sticky, smoky and properly fiery, these chicken wings balance the ghost-pepper heat of Dante’s Inferno with honey, lime and a cool yoghurt dip. They are made for people who genuinely enjoy chilli—but the heat remains adjustable.

Heat warning: Dante’s Inferno contains ghost pepper. Begin with the stated minimum, avoid touching your eyes and wash your hands and utensils thoroughly after handling.

🧾 Ingredients

• 1kg chicken wings
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• ½ tsp fine sea salt
• ¼ tsp Dante’s Inferno, plus more only after tasting
• 2 tbsp runny honey
• 1 tbsp tomato purée
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• 150g Greek yoghurt
• Finely grated zest and juice of ½ lime

Instructions

1. Heat the oven to 200°C fan / 220°C conventional. Pat the wings thoroughly dry.
2. Toss the wings with baking powder, salt and ¼ teaspoon Dante’s Inferno. Arrange on a rack over a lined tray.
3. Roast for 40–45 minutes, turning once, until crisp, golden and cooked through.
4. Warm the honey, tomato purée, soy sauce and lime juice in a small pan for 2 minutes.
5. Taste the glaze carefully. Add only a tiny extra pinch of Inferno if you want more heat.
6. Toss the cooked wings through the glaze. Mix the yoghurt with the lime zest and juice and serve alongside.

🍽️ Serving Suggestions

Pile onto a sharing platter with celery, cucumber and plenty of lime yoghurt. Keep extra Inferno at the table for committed heat-seekers rather than increasing the whole batch.

💛 Why This Recipe Works

Baking powder dries the skin for crispness, while honey rounds off the chilli without hiding it. The cool, acidic yoghurt gives every mouthful balance.

🧂 Try It With

Build extra flavour with Garlic Granules and Smoked Paprika. Add them for aroma and depth rather than using more Inferno simply for heat.
