Step 1

Prepare the sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the butter. Add the onions and garlic and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Add the mangos and sauté for another 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the mango juice, habanero pepper sauce (more or less, depending on your spice tolerance) and honey. Simmer for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat.

Step 4

Use an immersion blender or tabletop blender to blend the sauce until smooth. Set the sauce aside.

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Season the chicken wings with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, ground sage, salt and pepper with a small splash of oil.

Step 6

Heat a cast-iron skillet. Once the pan is hot, add the rest of the oil to the pan. Carefully add chicken to the pan and sear for 1-2 minutes. Flip the chicken and sear for another 1-2 minutes.
