Honeyed-Hoisin Grilled Chicken Wings

Source of Recipe


From "Staff Meals from Chanterelle"






List of Ingredients



• 6 lbs. chicken wings
  
• 3 large oranges
  
• 2 cups good-quality regular soy sauce, such as Kikkoman
  
• 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
  
• 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
  
• 1/4 cup honey
  
• 2 Tbsp black soy sauce
  
• 1 Tbsp Chinese chili sauce with garlic
  
• 1 Tbsp grated fresh ginger
  
• 2 large cloves garlic, minced
  






Instructions



1. Trim the tips from the wings and discard or save for another purpose, such as making stock. Rinse the remaining wings under cold running water, then drain and pat dry with paper towels.
   
   
2. Grate the zest only (no white pith) from the oranges, then cut the oranges in half and squeeze the juice; you should have about 1 cup. Combine the grated zest and juice in a large bowl. Add the regular soy sauce, vinegar, hoisin sauce, honey, black soy sauce, chili sauce, ginger and garlic, and whisk thoroughly to blend. Add the chicken wings and toss to coat completely, then refrigerate, covered, for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours.
   
   
3. When you're ready to cook, preheat a grill.
   
   
4. When the grill is moderately hot, drain the chicken wings and arrange them on a grill rack. Cook until nicely browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes on each side. Serve with plenty of paper napkins.
