Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings split, 900 g Note
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons fine sea salt or kosher salt
- 1 ½ teaspoon black pepper coarsely ground
- 1 teaspoon Chinese 5-spice powder
- 1-2 green onions optional for garnish
- red chili flakes or 1 fresh red chili optional for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 425°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place an oven-safe wire rack on top.
- Prepare wings: If the wings are whole, cut them into wingettes and drumettes (Note). Dry them very well with paper towels and place them in a large bowl.
- Season: Rub the wings with the oil. Mix salt, pepper, and Chinese spices in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the wings and stir well to coat.
- Bake for about 40 minutes until crispy and golden brown.
- Garnish with finely chopped green onions and fresh chilies or red chili flakes.
Notes
- Split wings:
- Place one whole wing on a cutting board. Hold the tiny drumstick (drumette) and stretch the joint open. The flat part (wingette) should still be on the work surface.
- Cut through the joint. If there is any resistance, move the knife a few millimeters more on the right or left until you find the right place to go through the skin and between the bones quickly.
- Remove the wing tips as well if still attached.
