It all began when my neighbor, Joe—yes, the quiet guy from next door who fixes my leaky faucet—leaned over the fence and tossed me a challenge: “Bet you can’t handle wings with a kick and a sweet twist.” Well, I took that as a dare, grabbed some mangoes from the farmers market and a fiery habanero pepper from my pantry, and went to work. The sizzle and pop of those chicken wings hitting the hot pan was almost hypnotic, and oh, the smell! Fruity … Read more
