A vibrant, herby chimichurri sauce adds a fresh touch to grilled chicken wings marinated in aromatic paprika. For the wings to reach their full flavor, marinate them for at least two hours, or better yet, overnight in the refrigerator. Serve the wings with sliced avocado, which will help soothe your taste buds after the spicy sauce.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings, 1/4 cup olive oil, and paprika. Season generously with salt and pepper, then toss to coat evenly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Meanwhile, prepare the chimichurri.:

Combine the vinegar, garlic, and a generous pinch of salt in a blender and blend. Add the parsley, cilantro, oregano, ice, and jalapeño and blend on medium speed. With the blender running, slowly pour in the remaining 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil and blend until smooth, about 1 minute, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Season the chimichurri with salt and pepper to taste, transfer to a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Preheat the grill to medium heat. Brush the grill grates with vegetable oil. Grill the chicken wings, turning every 6 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through, about 25 minutes.
Transfer the wings to a serving platter and season with salt to taste. Drizzle with chimichurri sauce and serve with the remaining dipping sauce.
