- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 to 3 tablespoons chipotle pepper puree (depending on how spicy you like it)
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 stick unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- 2 tablespoons ancho chile powder

How To Make Grilled Chicken Wings with Spicy Chipotle Hot Sauce and Blue Cheese-Yogurt Dipping Sauce?
- Grill the Chicken Wings: Heat your grill to high. Toss the wings with a bit of vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked.
- Make the Chipotle Hot Sauce: Whisk together red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, chipotle pepper puree, honey, and vegetable oil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Melt butter in a large skillet or pot on the grill, then add the hot sauce mix and bring to a boil. Stir in the ancho chile powder and salt to taste.
- Coat the Wings: Add the grilled wings to the hot sauce and stir well to coat them. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat.
- Make the Blue Cheese-Yogurt Dip: In a bowl, mix together Greek yogurt, crumbled blue cheese, chopped red onion, and sliced scallions. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Recipe Tips:
- Don’t Overcrowd the Grill: Place the wings in a single layer on the grill. Overcrowding can make them cook unevenly and prevent them from getting crispy on both sides.
- Adjust Spice Level: If you like it extra spicy, add more chipotle pepper puree to the sauce. You can also sprinkle some chili flakes on top for added heat.
- Check for Doneness: Make sure the wings are fully cooked by checking that the internal temperature reaches 165°F . This ensures they’re safe to eat and juicy inside.
- Let the Wings Rest in the Sauce: After coating the wings with the hot sauce, let them sit for a few minutes to soak up all the flavors for a more intense taste.
- Chill the Dip: Refrigerating the blue cheese-yogurt dip for at least 30 minutes helps the flavors blend and makes it thicker, so it’ll be creamier and tastier when served.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: Let the leftover wings cool to room temperature before storing them. Then, place the wings and the dipping sauce in separate airtight containers. Store them in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheat: Reheat the wings on the grill over medium heat for 3-4 minutes per side, just until they are warmed through. This helps to keep the wings crispy.
