Ingredients

Wings:

Blue Cheese Dressing:

Chipotle Tequila Sauce:

Directions

  1. For the wings: In the jar of a blender, combine the lemon juice, tequila, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cilantro and 4 tablespoons salt. Blend together. Place the chicken wings in a large bowl and pour the marinade over, turning to coat well. Let sit in the fridge for 25 minutes or up to overnight.
  2. For the blue cheese dressing: Mix together the blue cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, tequila, sugar, dill, garlic powder, onion powder and 2 tablespoons salt. Cover and refrigerate.
  3. For the chipotle tequila sauce: In a blender, blend the chipotles (with their juice) and agave until smooth.
  4. Prepare a grill for medium heat; lightly oil the grates. Grill the wings, turning occasionally, until cooked through, 30 to 40 minutes. Brush all over with the chipotle glaze and cook 5 minutes more. Serve with additional chipotle sauce on the side.
