Indian Style Baked Chicken Wings

Chicken wings are a crowd pleaser at any party and so easy to prepare. This dish is inspired by Indian cooking that often yields many different spices. Yet, to make this dish, you only need 5 different kinds of spices. By mixing just a little bit of each one to marinate the chicken wings for several hours, the wings will turn to be very aromatic, and absorb enough healthy benefits from the spices.

By Christine’s Recipes
Prep time: 10 mins + 2 hours for marinating
Cook time: 20 mins
Yield: 2 to 3 serves

Ingredients:

• 15 (about 530 gm) chicken wings
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp ground turmeric
• 1 tsp garam masala
• ⅛ tsp chilli powder
• ¼ tsp sea salt
• pepper, to taste
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp grated ginger
• 2 tsp brown sugar
• 2 tsp olive oil

Method:

1. Rinse the chicken wings and pat dry with paper towels. Mix well with all other ingredients. Refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
2. Preheat oven to 180C / 350F.
3. Remove the chicken wings and rest at room temperature for 20 minutes. Arrange them on a greased baking tray. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes. Flip the wings to the other side after 10 minutes to get them evenly baked. Continue baking until cooked through. Serve hot.

Notes：

• All the spices are available at Asian grocers or supermarkets.
• I only used wingettes, the flat middle sections, as they are meaty and tender. Yet the whole wings are also good for making this dish.
