Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 3 tbsp lime juice, coconut aminos, melted coconut oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, grated ginger, turmeric, 1 tsp salt, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, and lime zest until combined. Reserve 2 tablespoons of this marinade in a small bowl and set aside — this reserved portion will be used as a finishing glaze. Add the chicken wings to the remaining marinade and toss to coat thoroughly.

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours.
