Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1.5 kg chicken wings
2 level tbsp aluminium-free baking powder ((It has to be baking powder, NOT baking soda) - see further notes on baking powder below)
¾ tsp salt ((make sure it's regular table salt))
½ tsp pepper
3 tbsp chopped spring onions/scallions
1 tsp vegetable oil
pinch of salt and pepper
1 thumb-sized piece of ginger (peeled and minced)
1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
2 tbsp honey
4 tbsp brown sugar
5 tbsp dark soy sauce
1 tsp lemon grass paste
2 cloves garlic (peeled and minced)

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 120C/250F and place a rack on a large baking tray.
Cut each wing at the joint so you have a mini wing and a drumette. Dry the wings with paper towels, then place in a large bowl and add the baking powder, salt and pepper. Toss to combine. Note - it's important to dry the wings first so they only get a light coating. Discard any remaining coating once tossed together.
Place in a single layer on the rack, skin side up. It's fine for them to be touching. Place on the lower shelf of the oven for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, turn the oven up to 220c (425f), rotate the tray and place on a higher shelf (higher middle) in the oven for 45-50 minutes until the wings are golden and crispy. Take out of the oven to cool slightly.
Place all of the sauce ingredients into a saucepan, stir and bring to the boil. Allow to bubble for 5-10 minutes until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly (it will thicken more as it cools). Turn off the heat.
Place the wings in a large bowl and very carefully pour over the sticky sauce (be careful, it will VERY hot). Toss to combine, then serve topped with chopped spring onions.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 17

Ingredients

1.5 kg /3 lb chicken wings (, cut into drumettes and wingettes (Note 1))
1/2 tsp sesame oil (, toasted )
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp Chinese cooking wine ((Shaoxing wine, sub Mirin, dry sherry))
2 tbsp soy sauce (, light or all purpose)
2 tbsp brown sugar or honey
1 1/2 tbsp hoisin sauce
1 1/2 tbsp oyster sauce
1/4 cup ketchup (or Aussie tomato sauce)
1 tbsp chilli garlic sauce (or sambal oelek (adjust spiciness to taste))
4 cloves garlic (, minced)
1 tbsp ginger (, finely grated)
1/2 tsp five spice powder
Finely sliced shallots/scallions
Sesame seeds
Coriander/cilantro leaves
Finely sliced fresh chili

Steps:

Mix Marinade ingredients.
Place wings in large bowl, pour over Marinade and toss well. Set aside for 10 minutes - do not marinate for longer than 1 hour. (Note 3)
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F.
Line baking tray with foil then greaseproof paper (you'll thank me later).
Shake excess marinade off wings (but reserve the marinade) and spread on baking tray - can be fairly snug but not super squished (use 2 trays if needed).
Bake 45 - 50 minutes, basting with a brush at 25 minutes and 35 minutes, using the reserved marinade and juieces on the tray.
The meat should be able to be pulled off the bones quite easily, they should be just starting to char on the edges and a sticky, dark red/golden colour all over.
Sprinkle with garnishes - coriander/cilantro leaves, sesame seeds, chilli, sliced shallots/scallions - then serve!

Tips:

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will ensure that your chicken wings are flavorful and juicy.
Marinate the chicken wings for at least 30 minutes. This will help the flavors to penetrate the chicken and make them more tender.
Cook the chicken wings over medium-high heat. This will help to create a crispy outer layer and a juicy interior.
Do not overcrowd the chicken wings in the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
Turn the chicken wings halfway through cooking. This will help to ensure that they cook evenly on all sides.
Serve the chicken wings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
