To make the marinade, combine 1 cup orange juice, lime juice, soy sauce and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Place chicken in a 1-gallon re-sealable plastic food storage bag. Pour marinade over chicken. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, turning the bag occasionally to ensure even marinating. To make the Choco-Chili sauce, heat olive oil in medium saucepan over medium high heat. Add onion and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in garlic and cook an additional 3-4 minutes, until onion is tender. Add tomato sauce, 1/2 cup orange juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons Ancho chili powder, pumpkin pie spice, cumin, cardamom, cloves, honey, chocolate and orange zest. Combine well. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set aside and cool to room temperature until ready to use. Set a large, 6-quart cast iron Dutch oven over medium high heat with 2 quarts of vegetable oil. Heat the oil to 350?F., using a frying thermometer to gauge the temperature of the oil. Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and drain through a colander. Mix flour, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon Ancho chili powder in a 1-gallon re-sealable plastic food storage bag. Add the chicken, 8 pieces at a time in the flour mixture and shake to coat. Lay the coated chicken on a wire rack set over a sheet pan to rest for 10 minutes before frying. Continue with the remaining chicken pieces until all of the chicken has been coated. Fry the chicken in batches of 12 pieces. The temperature of the oil should drop to around 300?F. Fry chicken wings until they are golden brown and begin to float, 8-11 minutes (depending on the size of that flapper!). Place chicken on a sheet pan that is lined with paper towels. Be sure to allow the oil to return to 350? F. before adding more chicken to the hot oil. Serve hot with Choco-Chili dipping sauce.
