Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large bowl, combine 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp Cajun seasoning, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Add 2 lbs chicken wings and toss thoroughly to coat all wings evenly with the spice rub.
  2. Step 2: Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Arrange the chicken wings on the grill grates and cook for 20-25 minutes, turning every 5 minutes, until wings are cooked through and skin is charred and crispy.
  3. Step 3: While wings grill, prepare the dipping sauce by whisking together 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp lemon juice, and 1 tsp hot sauce until smooth and creamy.
  4. Step 4: Transfer grilled wings to a serving platter, sprinkle 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley over them, and serve immediately with the tangy dipping sauce on the side.
