Method
Combine the first 10 ingredients in a large bowl. Combine well, then divide into two ziplock bags. Refrigerate and marinate overnight. The next day, preheat a gas grill to HIGH heat. Drain the chicken drummets in a colander, then lightly coat with some olive oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt and grill the drummets, turning often for 6-7 minutes until firm and cooked through. While chicken cooks, stir remaining ingredients together. Serve drummets stacked on top of one another on a medium serving platter. Serve with the smoked paprika dipping sauce.
Notes: This recipe is basically hot wings for adults. The store-bought hot wings are marinated overnight. The marinade gives the already-spicey flavor an earthy sophistication from the wine and additional ingredients. Smoked paprika is used here. If it is not available in your area, regular will do fine.
