Sweet chilli chicken wings

Nov 17 11:36am

Ingredients

2kg chicken wings
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 tbsp oil
1/4 cup sweet chilli sauce
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp white vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tsp grated ginger
1 tbsp soft brown sugar

Here's how:
1. Trim the chicken of excess fat and sinew. Cut each wing into three sections, discarding the tips.
2. Mix together the remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Add the chicken pieces and stir until coated. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for several hours).
3. Preheat the oven to moderate (180C). Drain the chicken pieces and reserve the marinade. Place the chicken pieces on a roasting rack over a baking tray or in a deep baking dish. Bake for 1 hour, or until the chicken is crisp and cooked through. Brush the pieces with the reserved marinade several times during cooking. Serve hot.

Tip: The chicken can be cooked up to 2 days in advance and stored, covered, in the fridge. Reheat in a moderate (180C) oven for 10-15 minutes.
