To prepare the wings
If you don’t buy our pre-cut wings cut them yourself. If you stretch out the wing you’ll see the joints and that there are three parts to the wing. There is the wing tip, the middle part, and then the meatiest part- the drumette! Cut the wing at the joints to be left with three portions. The wing tip is not used in this – you can save them for stock.
To cut place the knife at the high ridge on the joint between the two pieces and push your knife through. If you have a lot of resistance, wiggle the knife just a bit and when you feel less resistance push the knife down. You should have a clean cut.
To Marinade
Mix together all the above ingredients and make sure the chicken wings are well coated. Marinade over night if possible, but an hour would suffice if you didn’t have the time.
To cook
Preheat the oven to 220c.
Line a baking tray with a rack on it. This is so that you get a lovely crisp outer skin without going soggy. Then arrange the wings on the rack and cook for around 35-40 minutes turning halfway through. Once cooked, golden and crispy all over, remove from the oven and arrange on a plate.
