Method
-
1
Begin by patting your chicken wings thoroughly dry with paper towels; this crucial step ensures a wonderfully crispy skin upon grilling. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
-
2
Drizzle the vegetable oil evenly over the wings, then generously season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Use your hands to toss and massage the seasoning into every surface, ensuring each wing is beautifully coated.
-
3
Preheat your grill to a medium-high heat, aiming for around 200°C (400°F). Take a moment to scrape the grates clean with a wire brush, then lightly oil them to prevent sticking and encourage perfect grill marks.
-
4
Carefully arrange the seasoned wings directly onto the hot, clean grill grates. Ensure they are in a single layer with a little space between each piece to allow for even cooking and optimal browning.
-
5
Close the grill lid and cook for 15 minutes. Then, using tongs, flip each wing to its other side. Continue grilling for another 10-15 minutes, flipping occasionally, until the skin achieves a gorgeous golden-brown crispness and the internal temperature reaches 74°C (165°F).

Once cooked to perfection, transfer the flame-kissed wings to a serving platter. Allow them to rest for 5 minutes; this brief pause ensures the juices redistribute, yielding incredibly tender and succulent meat.

Serve these exquisite wings immediately, perhaps with an extra sprinkle of coarse salt and pepper for an added textural and visual flourish, and watch them disappear!
For an even deeper flavor penetration and tenderness, you can marinate the wings in the oil, salt, and pepper mixture for up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator before grilling. Always ensure your grill grates are impeccably clean and well-oiled to achieve those coveted char marks without the wings sticking.
