Authentic Asian Chicken Wings

2-4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 Tbs fresh lime or lemon juice
1 Tbs honey
1 Tbs sesame oil
1 tsp grated fresh ginger
1/2 tsp hot red pepper flakes, or to taste (optional)
2 lbs chicken wings

Whisk all the ingredients except the chicken wings together in a large bowl. Add the chicken wings and toss to coat. Refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours, or overnight, tossing the wings occasionally. Grill over hot coals or under a preheated broiler, turning 2 or 3 times, until no longer pink at the bone, about 10 to 12 minutes. Serves 4 to 6.
