Chinese Barbecued Chicken Wings

Submitted by mersaydees

"Based on a recipe from Ken Hom’s Quick & Easy Chinese Cooking. Ken says that you may substitute chicken breasts, making sure to cook for less time. As an appetizer, this recipe is engineered for a large group, but for a larger crowd, simply double or triple the ingredients. Serve hot or at room temperature, which makes them suitable for picnics. The wings and sauce can be prepared in the morning of serving day, refrigerated, and simply taken out of the refrigerator in time to get them to room temperature before cooking. The barbecue sauce can be doubled in order to use half of it later for grilled lamb or pork chops."

The only change I made was to grate my ginger and chilli and then just mix the marinade/sauce in a jug and pour over trhe wings in the baking tray (lined and would adivise doing so) and made as per recipe and the result was moist wings that melted in the mouth. The only suggestion I would offer is that I cooked the wings the meatiest side up (I had removed the wing tips for stock) and I would cook them the initially the other way for the first 15 minutes (I did them 200C fan forced oven) and then flip to have the fleshy/meat side up and cook at 165C fan forced for the last 20 minutes. Though my photo looks like they are burnt they are declicatbly delicious and moist and only over the above suggestion to maybe get better colour coverage in the cooking. Thank you mersaydees, made for Please Review My Recipe.

I used pork spare ribs instead of the chicken and it was excellent. The combination of spices makes this a finger lickin good receipe.<br/>Highly recommend for those who like compliments!

This was wonderful!!!! I made it with chicken legs as I could not get wings, I will make it with wings next time. I also added a tablespoon to the sauce from the pan when the chicken was cooked and served it on the side as a dipping sauce. I love how easy this was with such a wonderful flavour. A big 5 stars from all of us. Thanks for sharing mersaydees.
