To make sweet and spicy wings less spicy for kids, you can follow these adjustments:
Adjustments for Less Spicy Wings
- Reduce Hot Sauce:
- Cut the amount of hot sauce in half or eliminate it entirely. You can substitute it with a mild sauce or simply use more honey to maintain sweetness.
- Add More Honey:
- Increase the honey to balance the flavors. This will enhance the sweetness and offset any heat.
- Use Mild Sauces:
- Instead of hot sauce, consider using a mild barbecue sauce or sweet chili sauce, which provides flavor without the heat.
- Incorporate Dairy:
- Serve with a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing. The creaminess can help neutralize any spiciness.
- Remove Spicy Ingredients:
- Omit any additional spicy ingredients like cayenne pepper or chili powder if included in your marinade.
- Cook Without Marinade:
- You can bake the wings without marinating them in the spicy mixture and then toss them in a mild sauce after cooking.
By making these adjustments, you can create a kid-friendly version of sweet and spicy wings that everyone will enjoy!
