Baked Chicken Wings are super easy to make. What makes these special is the marinade. You can let them sit in the marinade all day, or up to 24 hours. The longer they sit, they more flavor they get. These chicken drumsticks look like a great dinner or game day snack as well!

And that green sauce on these wings?  Oh my it is delicious. To come up with this recipe I researched a lot about different flavors and traditions in Peruvian cuisine. One repeating thing I found was green sauce. It is a creamy sauce with tons of cilantro, garlic, and lime. It is so easy to make, and good on just about anything.
