   • Using a mortar and pestle, mash the garlic cloves into a paste.

2. Mix the Marinade:

   • In a mixing bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, chopped cilantro, and garlic paste. Stir well to blend the flavors evenly.

3. Marinate the Chicken Wings:

   • Place the chicken wings in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the wings, ensuring they are well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

4. Cooking Options:

   • Grilling: Preheat your grill to medium heat. Remove the chicken wings from the marinade, reserving the marinade for basting. Grill the wings for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with the remaining marinade, until they are cooked through and have a nice charred exterior.

   • Broiling: If using a broiler, place the wings on a broiler pan lined with foil. Broil for about 10-12 minutes, turning once halfway through and basting with the marinade, until the wings are golden brown and cooked through.

5. Serve:

   • Once cooked, transfer the wings to a serving platter. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired. Serve hot, and enjoy the flavorful Vietnamese-inspired chicken wings!
