How spicy are wings made with habanero peppers, and can I adjust the heat level?
Habanero wings are quite spicy as these peppers rate 100,000-350,000 Scoville units. Easily adjust the heat by removing all seeds and membranes for milder wings, or leave some in for extra kick. You can also reduce the number of peppers used or substitute with milder chillies.
