In a large storage container, combine 7 lbs. cut chicken wings with 3 Tbsp. garlic powder, 3 Tbsp. onion powder, 1½ Tbsp. salt, and 1½ Tbsp. ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly until wings are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate to marinate for several hours or overnight.
In a large saucepan, combine 1 pkg. RC Mango Habanero Sandwich Sauce Mix, 2 cups prepared RC Mango Coulis, 2 cups cold water, 2 cups dark brown sugar, 40 oz. ketchup, 4 oz. cider vinegar, 2 cups honey, 1 tsp. RC Clear Mango Flavor, 1 oz. RC Chipotle Chile Flavor Concentrate, 1 tsp. RC Red Miso Powder, 1 tsp. RC Kokumi Powder, and optional 4 oz. small diced fresh mango. Whisk well and bring to a gentle simmer to dissolve sugar and blend flavors.
Toss marinated wings in all-purpose flour to coat evenly, shaking off excess. Fry in hot oil (350°F–375°F) until crispy and the internal temperature reaches a minimum of 175°F. Drain thoroughly on wire racks.
Transfer hot fried wings to a large stainless steel bowl, pour in generous amounts of warm Mango Habanero Glaze, and toss to coat evenly. Plate immediately and garnish with chopped scallions or fresh chives.
Layered Sweet & Heat Profile: Combining RC Mango Habanero Sandwich Sauce Mix with RC Chipotle Chile Flavor Concentrate builds complex heat with both fruity habanero top notes and deep smoky chipotle undertones.
Mouthfeel & Umami Boosters: Incorporating RC Red Miso Powder and RC Kokumi Powder deepens savoriness and rounds out the sharp vinegar and sweetness, giving the glaze high-end restaurant gloss and rich mouthfeel.
