Oven-Baked Asian Mahogany Wings

Source of Recipe


From "The Great Wings Book" by Hugh Carpenter



List of Ingredients



• 24 chicken wings
  
• 1 cup hoisin sauce
  
• ¾ cup plum sauce
  
• ½ cup thin soy sauce
  
• 1/3 cup cider vinegar
  
• ¼ cup dry sherry or Chinese rice wine
  
• ¼ cup honey
  
• 2 scallions, ends trimmed, minced
  
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
  






Instructions



1. Cut off the wing tips and save them for making stock. In a bowl large enough to hold the wings, combine all the remaining ingredients. Add the wings, and mix thoroughly. Marinate the wings in the refrigerator for 1 to 24 hours (the longer, the better).
   
   
2. Preheat oven to 375° F. Line a shallow baking pan with foil. Coat a wire rack with nonstick cooking spray and place the rack in the baking pan. Drain the chicken and reserve the marinade.
   
   
3. Arrange the wings on the rack (smooth surface down) and roast for 30 minutes. Drain the accumulated liquid from the pan. Baste the wings with the reserved marinade; turn them over and baste again. Roast until the wings turn a mahogany color, about another 30 minutes. Cut the wings in half through the joint. Serve hot or at room temperature.
