Nando’s Spicy Brown Sugar Wings

I knew before I opened the bottle that I’d love this sauce and I’d love it even more on chicken wings. In part that’s because I loved Nando’s garlic wings. I knew I could trust the brand. I knew when it said ‘spicy’ it’d be spicy. And there’s this little ‘heat indicator’ on the label too. It didn’t indicate ‘mild’ or ‘medium’. It said ‘hot’. And it was. A little sweet, too. And it was oh, oh so delicious! These Nando’s Spicy Brown Sugar wings are great!

Air-Fried. Or Otherwise

I went with my standard go-to air fryer recipe for making these Nando’s Spicy Brown Sugar wings. It’s easy and quick, perfect for my lunch. Yep, lunch. I eat a lot of wings. Probably too many. But I can’t help myself when there are delicious sauces around like this one! I’m a big fan of the light sweetness. And I love the tanginess and slight tartness (it’s those peri-peri peppers!). This sauce is almost BBQ sauce-like, with its hint of smoke. But it’s different. And very good.

Nando’s Buffalo Wings

There are a lot of Buffalo wing sauces out there. This one’s different. These Nando’s Buffalo wings had a little something about them. A little taste that I haven’t found in other traditional wing sauces. This is all thanks to the addition of peri peri chilis. They’re fantastic. They make this sauce fantastic.

Different Is Good

There’s nothing wrong with traditional Buffalo wings. Don’t get me wrong. I’ve had plenty of them. Many were similar. Some were different. And a few, like these Nando’s Buffalo wings, were quite different, thanks to the sauce. Pretty much your ‘standard’ sauce consistency. And pretty ‘tame’ in the heat department. But mighty ‘yummy’ in the taste.

Nando’s Garlic Wings

Garlic. Lots of garlic. More and more garlic. If you’re a big fan of garlic like I am, you’re going to love some Nando’s garlic wings. This sauce is spot-on great for us garlic lovers. And it has a little bit of heat to it too. That’s an extra win. So go make yourself some wings, grab some of this wonderful sauce, and get to enjoying garlic greatness!

Cook Them And They Will Eat

The sauce is the real star of this wing show. So when you make your wings, don’t go crazy seasoning them. You don’t want a flavor fight here. You want to taste all of that wonderful garlic. For me that usually means very-lightly seasoned wings cooked in an air fryer, then sauced to perfection and devoured immediately. No matter what method you use to cook them, you’re going to love the flavor of these Nando’s garlic wings.

This sauce is also great for dipping wings, nuggets, tenders, you name it!
