We love to snack on chicken wings and this fruity version - using dried mango - is really good! Prep time does not include marinating time. Ingredients:
3 lbs chicken wings, plump (make sure they're halved) |
1 cup strong black tea (i left the tea bag in for 10 minutes) |
4 ounces dried mango |
1 1/2 ounces fresh ginger, peeled weight (a 2 inch knob, approximately) |
2 large garlic cloves, peeled |
4 tablespoons dark corn syrup |
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
2 tablespoons ketchup |
1/3 cup soya sauce |
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (if you like a lot of spice, add more) |
Directions:
1. Rehydrate dried mango by placing the pieces in a small bowl with the hot tea and leave until tea has cooled completely.
2. Combine all marinade ingredients (including mango and tea) in a mini-processor and blend to make a fairly-smooth puree (it will not be completely smooth).
3. Put chicken wings in a large ziploc bag and add marinade. Seal bag and massage marinade into chiciken wings. Refrigerate wings 8 hours or overnight. Remove from refrigerator 20 minutes before baking.
4. Preheat oven to 375°F Empty chicken wings into a 9 X 13 inch baking dish. Bake for 1 1/2 hours, turning over after 1 hour and basting with marinade.
5. Enjoy!
