Sticky Asian BBQ Chicken Wings (Cooking Channel)

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 pounds mixed chicken wings and drumsticks
  • 6 squidges of tomato ketchup
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Chinese five-spice powder
  • 2 squidges of honey
  • 1 clove garlic
  • A few sprigs fresh thyme
  • Salt and pepper
  • Sunflower oil, for drizzling

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Scatter the chicken pieces into a large roasting pan.

Put the ketchup, soy sauce, vinegar, five-spice powder and honey in a small bowl.

Peel and finely chop the garlic and run your fingers down the length of the thyme sprigs to release the leaves and add them both along with some salt, pepper and a drizzle of oil.

Give everything a good stir and pour it over the chicken pieces. Toss everything to evenly coat, then settle the chicken into a single layer and put in the oven to cook until piping hot and cooked through, about 30 minutes.
