Instructions
Creating Moroccan Spiced Grilled Chicken Wings is straightforward. Follow these steps to guide you through:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well to create a fragrant marinade.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken wings to the bowl, ensuring they are well coated in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
3. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F or 190°C).
4. Prepare the Grill Grate: Lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking.
5. Grill the Wings: Remove the wings from the marinade, shaking off any excess. Place them on the preheated grill. Cook for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until the wings are golden brown and cooked through.
6. Check for Doneness: Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). They should have a nice char on the outside.
7. Serve the Wings: Remove from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro for a burst of color and flavor.
8. Enjoy: Serve the wings hot, perfect for sharing with friends and family!
