🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F or 190-200°C). Make sure the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking. This is crucial, trust me!
- Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This will help them crisp up nicely on the grill. I learned this the hard way, once. Soggy wings are NO fun!
- In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Make sure all the wings are evenly coated. Mix it up like you're making a crazy-fun salad!
- Arrange the chicken wings in a single layer on the grill grates. Don't overcrowd the grill; otherwise your wings won't cook evenly, and that's a culinary crime, my friend! Leave some space between each wing.
- Grill for 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until they're cooked through and nicely browned. Internal temperature should be 165°F (74°C). You can use a meat thermometer to be sure. I always do!
- While the wings are grilling, prepare the yogurt sauce by combining all the ingredients (Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, garlic, salt, pepper) in a small bowl. Mix everything well until it's nice and creamy. So creamy, you'll want to eat it straight from the bowl! But don't, save it for the wings!
- Once the chicken wings are cooked, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, making them even more tender and flavorful. Resting is important, don't skip this step!
- Serve the grilled chicken wings immediately with the yogurt sauce for dipping. I love to serve them with a side salad or some crusty bread for sopping up the extra delicious sauce. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

📝 Notes
- For extra flavor, marinate the chicken wings in the spice mixture for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
- Adjust the amount of spices to your liking. Feel free to experiment with other spices like cayenne pepper or cumin!
