Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken wings
- -- 3T Honey
- -- 3T Soy Sauce
- -- 1T Toasted Sesame Oil
- -- juice & zest of one lime
- 1 -- fresh apricot, peeled, pitted and diced (or substitute 2T apricot baby food)

Instructions
Rinse and pat dry chicken wings. Set aside toasted sesame seeds and 1/2 of the diced scallions. Place all other ingredients in a large plastic bag (gallon size). Squish around all ingredients to blend. Place bag in a dish (to avoid leaks) and marinate at least 30 minutes (up to overnight). Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Remove wings from marinate and place in a baking dish with some space between wings. Discard bag and marinate. Bake wings at 425 degrees for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake an additional 20-30 minutes (until cooked through). Let rest for 10 minutes and move to serving dish. Sprinkle wings with toasted sesame seeds and remaining diced scallions. Optionally garnish with cilantro. Serve.
