Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings split, 900 g, Note 1
- 3 garlic cloves grated
- 1 piece of ginger grated 1 inch/ 2 ½ cm
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey Note 2
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
- sesame seeds and spring onions for garnish optional
Instructions
- Prepare wings: If the chicken wings are whole, cut them into drumettes and wingettes (Note 4). Dry the wings with paper towels, and place them in a large bowl.
- Marinade: In a small bowl, stir the grated garlic and ginger, oil, soy sauce, honey, and pepper. Pour over the wings, cover with plastic foil and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight. Remove from the fridge about 30 minutes before cooking.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F/ 200°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (Note 3).
- Bake the chicken wings for 20 minutes. Flip with tongs and bake for another 15 to 20 minutes. Check after 10-13 minutes already; cover the tray loosely with aluminum foil if the glaze turns too dark.
- Rest for about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with roasted sesame seeds and finely chopped spring onions if desired.

Notes
- Place one whole piece on a cutting board. Hold the drumette in your hand and stretch the joint open. The wingette/flat part should still be on the work surface. Cut through the joint; you should not encounter resistance.
- If there is any, 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.If they still have the tips on, remove those too.
- The wing tips are usually removed but cut them if they're still attached. Use them to make chicken stock.
- 2 lbs are about 8-9 whole chicken wings or 16-18 split ones.
- Add some cayenne pepper to taste, if you would like the wings to be hot.
- Use a wire rack if you have one. Place it on top of the baking sheet and arrange the wings on it.
- Split whole chicken wings
