Marinating chicken wings in a base of tamarind purée, fish sauce, brown sugar, crushed red pepper flakes, and cumin, with more brushed on as they grill, gives optimal flavor and just enough char. Topped with crunchy onion, these wings offer an explosion of flavors, perfect for backyard summer entertaining.
