Ingredients
- Chicken wings–I like using frozen ones from Butcher Box. Butcher Box sends me a monthly supply of all of my favorite proteins. I love using their stuff because I never have to run out or worry about it going bad in the fridge since their stuff comes frozen. If you use my link HERE you can get free bacon for life.
- Peanut butter-Make sure it is creamy and not crunchy.
- Jelly-I like using grape jelly in this recipe but raspberry jelly would also be delicious.
- Apple cider vinegar-Adds a nice kick with the creamy peanut butter.
- Sriracha-Adds a nice asian twist.
- Chopped peanuts-Do not skip! These add a nice crunch.
- Fresh lime-Adds even more flavor.

Step By Step Instructions
Expert Tips
- Tip # 1: You can serve the wings as an appetizer or as a meal.

Recipe FAQ
I recommend reheating in the oven or air fryer at 350 degrees F for 5-10 minutes. If wings are already tossed in sauce, you will want extra sauce to keep them from being dry once reheated.
You can serve this dish as an appetizer with tongs or on a platter as a meal.
You can cut the sweet by adding more sriracha or apple cider vinegar.
Storage Instructions
- This recipe can be stored in an air tight container for 5 days in the refrigerator.
