Ingredients

Creamy ranch:

8 ounces cream cheese room temperature
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons dill finely chopped
½ teaspoon onion salt
½ teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch pepper

Sticky sweet sauce:

½ cup honey
½ cup soy sauce low-sodium
¼ cup sriracha
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons Major Grey’s mango chutney
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons garlic powder

Wings:

4 carrot(s) peeled
4 celery (stalks), trimmed
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 pounds chicken party wings and/or drummettes, rinsed and dried completely
salt
1 cup cilantro leaves picked

Directions

Make the creamy ranch:

Combine all ingredients in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment and mix on medium speed until smooth. Transfer to a serving bowl, cover, and keep in refrigerator until ready to serve.

Make the sticky sweet sauce:

Stir together all ingredients in a small pot and place over medium heat. Bring to a low boil and continue to cook until sauce thickens to the consistency of molasses, about 10 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent scorching. Remove from heat and set aside while you prepare wings.

Prepare wings:

Cut the carrots and celery into sticks, and set aside.
Heat oil in large sauté pan over medium heat. Add one layer of wings to pan. Lightly season with salt. Cover with lid and cook 3 minutes. Using tongs, flip chicken pieces over and lightly season with salt. Cover with lid and cook an additional 3 minutes.
Set aside lid, flip wings over, and set a timer to 16 minutes. Continue to cook the chicken uncovered, flipping them over every 2 minutes. After timer ends, transfer the wings to a large bowl along with 1 cup of picked cilantro leaves. Pour the warm, sticky sweet sauce over the wings and toss until all the wings are evenly coated. Arrange the wings on a platter along with the carrot and celery sticks. Serve the ranch dressing on the side for dipping
