• 1/4 cup canola oil or 1/4 cup olive oil

• 9 remove the chicken wings from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 25-30 minutes while heating the grill.
• 10 grill over medium-high heat, flipping frequently and brushing with the marinade for 15-20 minutes or until cooked through.
• 11 do not brush the wings with the marinade for the last five minutes to make sure the juices all cook thoroughly.
