The first time I tried the Thai Curry Wings at Buffalo Wild Wings I was blown away. It was in West Chester, Ohio, and I remember it like it was yesterday because I absolutely loved the combination of coconut, curry and just a bit of heat. I could’ve just licked the sauce off the wings, but then we were in a public place and that would’ve been awkward. Ever since I’ve been looking for a copycat of BW3’s sauce, and here it is. Now I can lick the sauce off the wings in the privacy of my own home!

I found the Shan chicken white karahi mix in the Pakistani section of our international supermarket. If you can’t find it nearby you can always order it online.

I could not find Thai chile peppers in our supermarket, so I had to go to plan B. I picked up a few packages of dried cayenne peppers, reconstituted them, and chopped them up. It was a great save.

Ingredients

For the wings

• 3-4 pounds chicken wings flats and drumettes separated, tips saved to make stock

For the sauce

• 12-24 Thai peppers see my note
• 5 ounces green pepper Tabasco sauce
• 8 ounces lite coconut milk
• ½ cup lime juice
• ½ cup non-fat plain yogurt
• ¼ cup ginger paste more or less, to taste
• 2 packages Shan chicken white karahi mix  found in the Pakistani section of your grocery store

Instructions

For the wings

• Cook wings as desired. Click here for our guide on cooking wings in a grill, smoker, deep fryer, oven, air fryer or a Char-Broil Big Easy.
• Toss wings with sauce before serving.

For the sauce (start cooking when you start the wings)

• Mince the peppers and then pound in a mortar and pestle or grind into a paste using the side of a knife blade. You want the peppers to form a paste.
• Place the peppers and remaining ingredients into a saucepan over medium heat.
• Stir until the ingredients are combined.
• Reduce heat to a simmer and continue simmering, stirring occasionally, while the wings are cooking. You want the sauce to thicken slightly.
• NOTE: I could not find Thai peppers at our grocery store. You can substitute jalapenos or seranos for more heat. Preferably you want to use a red pepper. I bought dried cayenne peppers, which I then reconstituted in hot water for 1 hour. I then removed the seeds and minced the peppers into a paste.
