HOT & SPICY GARLIC CHICKEN WINGS

HOT & SPICY GARLIC CHICKEN WINGS

INGREDIENTS
4.5lb-2Kg chicken wings
4 tbsp olive oil

For the Spice Mix

¾ tbsp Kosher salt (less for table salt)
1 tbsp white pepper
2 tbsp smoked paprika
2 tsp garam masala
2 tbsp garlic powder
1 tsp chili powder

For the glaze

3 garlic cloves
5 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp brown sugar
2 tbsp cider vinegar
½ tbsp corn starch (corn flour)
½ cup water
(optional spring onion or scallion/green onion)
HOW TO MAKE
1.Preheat your oven to 430°F – 220°C.

2.To a large mixing bowl, add the salt, white pepper, smoked paprika, garam masala and garlic powder. Mix dry ingredients well.

3.Trim the ends of the wings at the joint and cut in half at the joint.

4.Place the wings in a strainer or colander over your sink. Boil a kettle full of water and pour over the wings. This will not only wash them, it will pre-heat them and separate the skin from the flesh for better roasting. Place on a clean kitchen towel and pat dry. (note once you add the hot water, you need to cook your wings almost immediately).

5.Place washed wings in the spice mix, coat well. Add olive oil and mix well. Place a cooling rack over a sheet pan (you can line it with foil) and arrange your wings on the rack, try and leave a small gap between each one. Bake in oven for 20 minutes at 430°F – 220°C.

6.While the wings are roasting, for the glaze add in a saucepan on medium heat the soy sauce, minced garlic cloves, brown sugar and cider vinegar. Bring to a simmer and turn to low. Cook for 3 minutes. In a small bowl, add your corn starch (corn flour) and mix with the water. Add to your glaze over low heat and mix until thick. Turn off heat and leave aside.

7.Once the wings are cooked, remove and coat each one with the glaze. Place on foil lined sheet pan with a cooling rack. Bake in oven at 350°F – 180°C for 10-15 minutes. Serve immediately with optional finely sliced green onion.
