Craving wings with real character? These spicy chicken wings with peanuts have got it all—zesty, savory, and satisfyingly crunchy. The wings soak overnight (or at least 2 hours) in a bold marinade of soy, lemon juice, ginger, nutmeg, black pepper, sugar, and sesame oil. After a quick pan-fry to lock in flavor, they’re roasted in the oven and showered with salted peanuts for a nutty crunch.
Each bite delivers a harmony of tang, heat, and umami with a textured finish that’s impossible to resist. Perfect for game nights, casual dinners, or anytime you crave wings with a twist—let’s fire up the oven.
