Honey Lime Chicken Wings
Description
This recipe starts by arranging 12 chicken wings in a single layer on a lined roasting pan, drizzled with olive oil and honey for moisture and sweetness. Fresh lime juice is squeezed over the wings, and halved limes are nestled among them to infuse brightness. A generous pinch of salt seasons the wings.
The wings cook at a low oven temperature (140ºC/120ºC fan/275ºF approx.) for 25 minutes to cook through gently without drying, then the heat is increased to 200ºC/180ºC fan (about 400ºF) for an additional 20 minutes to dry and crisp the skin, creating a sticky and slightly charred finish.
The wings are served with extra lime wedges for additional acidity. The method ensures tender meat with a glossy, flavorful tangy-sweet coating, suitable for an easy appetizer or snack.
