Grilled Cilantro Lime Chicken Wings

These Cilantro Lime Wings are fresh, tangy, smoky, and packed with bold flavor from the grill. A citrusy marinade loaded with cumin, garlic, and lime juice makes these wings irresistible, while a butter-based glaze with honey, hot sauce, and chopped cilantro adds the perfect finishing touch. Grilled on the Masterbuilt Gravity Series® 1150, you’ll get crispy skin, juicy meat, and just the right kiss of charcoal flavor. Whether you're hosting game day, a backyard BBQ, or just want to elevate wing night, this recipe delivers big.

"Bold citrus flavor, smoky grill marks, and a sweet-and-spicy glaze — these wings steal the show."

The Gravity Series® 1150 delivers high-heat searing and steady temperature control, both essential for grilled chicken wings. Its fan-driven airflow system helps maintain 400°F without constant monitoring, so you get crisp skin and juicy interiors every time. Plus, the charcoal flavor brings depth to the marinade and glaze that gas grills just can’t match.

Instructions

1. 01

   In a large bowl or zip-top bag, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Add the wings and toss to coat evenly. Refrigerate and marinate for at least 4 hours.

2. 02

   Set your Masterbuilt Gravity Series® 1150 to 400°F. Allow the grill to preheat and stabilize.

3. 03

   Place the wings on the grill and cook until the internal temperature reaches 190°F, flipping occasionally for even browning and crispy skin.

4. 04

   In a small saucepan, combine the butter, honey, hot sauce, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Heat over medium until the butter is fully melted and the mixture is well combined.

5. 05

   Remove the wings from the grill and toss them in the warm glaze. Garnish with extra fresh cilantro and serve immediately.
