Fiber

Drumettes, also called party wings, are the meatiest part of chicken
wings. They look like miniature drumsticks. They’re just the right
size to serve as appetizers for a party. The marinade gives these
drumettes lots of flavor in a relatively short amount of time.

6 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp grated lime peel
2 tsp kosher (coarse) salt
2 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp cumin seeds, toasted, crushed*

1 Tbsp adobo sauce

GARNISH
2 avocados, sliced

1. Place garlic, grated lime peel, salt, oregano, crushed cumin seeds,
lime juice and oil in nonreactive shallow pan large enough to hold

marinade. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or up to 4 hours.

2. In small bowl, stir together all mayonnaise ingredients. Refrigerate
30 minutes.

3. Heat grill or broiler. Remove chicken from marinade; discard
