- Pat wings to remove excess moisture with a couple of paper towels. Season with salt, pepper and chile powders on both sides. In a large skillet, preheat 4 tablespoons of olive oil to medium/high heat for 3 minutes. Sear and brown the chicken wings on both sides, turning and rotating the wings in the pan as needed. This takes about 20 minutes.
- Reduce heat slightly and add the garlic, chile piquin and fresh chile pepper slices. Stir fry for 1 minute. Quickly add in the maggi sauce, vinegar, agave and ancho sauce. Stir well to combine and cook uncovered for 10 minutes.
- Cover the skillet after 10 minutes and cook for another 10 minutes. Again, uncover and cook for 8-10 minutes or until the sauce reduces and thickens. Place wings under preheated broiler on high for 2-3 minutes. Before serving, garnish with fresh lime juice, cilantro and sliced chile peppers.
