    Peanut Dipping Sauce: (not in nutritional calculations)
    -1 cup creamy Peanut Butter
    -1/4 cup plus 2 Tablespoons brown sugar or Blue Agave Sweetener
    -2 tablespoons canola oil
    -2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
    -1 tablespoon lime juice
    -1/4 teaspoon salt
    -1/4 teaspoon chipotle powder

    Garnishes: (not in nutritional calculations)
    Chopped red pepper, roasted
    Chopped green onions

    Sesame seeds

Directions

Marinade:
Combine all Marinade ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend until well pureed.

Place wing pieces in a large, sealable plastic bag or glass container. Pour marinade over and mix well. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.

Peanut Sauce:
In a medium saucepan, combine all Peanut Sauce ingredients. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring frequently until well combined and heated. Adjust as necessary to suit personal preference. Set aside. This will make about 1 1/3 cups sauce.

Cooking the wings:
Remove the wings from marinade and let drain in a colander. Pat lightly dry with a paper towel.
Lightly coat each wing with Peanut sauce and arrange in a single layer on a foil-lined cooking sheet. Cook uncovered in a 400 degree oven for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, turning once.

After cooking, let cool slightly. Lightly toss with additional peanut sauce (if preferred), chopped scallions, chopped peanuts, sesame seeds and chopped roasted red peppers. Serve with additional peanut sauce for dipping.

For a bit crispier wing, before baking you can deep-fry them in vegetable oil for about 5-7 minutes after patting dry. Continue as directed and reduce baking to about 5-10 minutes.

Serving Size: Makes approx 20 servings of 2-3 wings each
