Spicy Lime-Honey Sauce
Chef Margot shares her Spicy Lime-Honey Sauce, perfect for wings, salmon, chicken, pork, or even a veggie beef kabob!
Ingredients
1 – 12oz bottle of honey
4 Tbsp. bottled lime juice*
1 to 1½ – Tbsps fine sea salt
1 to 2 – tsps cayenne pepper powder (or your favorite pure chile powder)
Directions:
Mix all together well in a medium-sized bowl with a pouring lip or spout. Pour into a glass or plastic container and cover tightly. Store in a cool (65-45F) spot in your pantry. If it does crystallize over time, you can melt it on low in your microwave – but use caution! The chile powder and honey are both sensitive ingredients and can react dangerously when overheated.
If you bake your wings, bake them halfway through, then toss ‘em in the sauce and continue baking until done, stirring a few times to coat evenly. This sauce is also outrageous on simple grilled salmon, pork or chicken, as pretty amazing on a beef or veggie kabob. If you have leftover sauce, cover it tightly and store in a cool place.
*The little plastic green limes in the produce section. Normally I wouldn’t touch the stuff, but sinceit’s best not to refrigerate this sauce, it’s much safer to use
it here.
