1 tablespoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons Chinese 5-spice powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 jalapeño pepper, with seeds, finely chopped
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup Tabasco sauce, evenly divided
24 chicken wings
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced
In a small bowl, combine the dry ingredients and chopped jalapeño to make the spice mixture; set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the oil and 1/4 cup of Tabasco, then add in the wings and toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle liberally with the spice mixture and toss to distribute spices. Put the whole shebang into a plastic zipper bag, seal, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (up to 24 hours).
Grill the wings over medium-high heat until the meat is no longer pink near the bone, about 18 minutes. Make sure to turn them every few minutes to get an even, dark char. Remove the cooked wings from the grill and toss them in a clean bowl with the remaining 1/4 cup of Tabasco and the scallions until evenly coated.
Serve the wings with the Barbecue Dipping Sauce.
