Ideal for a picnic, these sesame-speckled chicken wings are so good, you'll be happy to lick your fingers clean. Ingredients:
1 large garlic clove |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons soy sauce |
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce |
2 tablespoons mild honey |
1 teaspoon asian sesame oil |
pinch of cayenne |
3 lb chicken wingettes or chicken wings (see cooks' note, below) |
1 1/2 tablespoons sesame seeds, lightly toasted |
1 scallion (green part only), finely chopped |
Directions:
1. Put oven rack in upper third of oven and preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large shallow baking pan (17 by 12 inches) with foil and lightly oil foil. 2. Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt using a large heavy knife. Transfer garlic paste to a large bowl and stir in soy sauce, hoisin, honey, oil, and cayenne. Add wingettes to sauce, stirring to coat. 3. Arrange wingettes in 1 layer in baking pan and roast, turning over once, until cooked through, about 35 minutes. Transfer wingettes to a large serving bowl and toss with sesame seeds and scallion. 4. Cooks' note: If using chicken wings instead of wingettes, cut off and discard tips from chicken wings with kitchen shears or a large heavy knife, then halve wings at joint. |
