Guava-Mango–Agave Glazed Wings

Guava-Mango–Agave Glazed Wings

Hi familia,

This recipe needs a little backstory. A few days ago, David made one of my now most popular reels on Instagram, and all I did was grab a handful of Matriarca pantry staples and see what would happen. Mango jam, guava jam, powders, matcha, agave, salt. No overthinking. No measuring stress. Just pantry cooking at its best.

The wings were so good that the kids asked for them again the next day. And then again today. So I developed the recipe and here it is. This is officially day three of wings in our house, which tells you everything you need to know. When something passes the kid test multiple days in a row, it’s a keeper.

So here’s the recipe, as promised. If you want to see how it all came together, and watch David in action, I’ve linked the reel on my Instagram below. This one is simple, flexible, and made entirely with things you already have in your Matriarca pantry.

Enjoy,
Marcela
