STICKY CHICKEN WINGS WITH BAKED WEDGES AND COLESLAW

There are so many recipes of Sticky chicken wings. Most of them are so sweet and I really do not like it. If you are like me who likes sticky wings ( without sugary sugar ) then this is the recipe. It is sticky and the same time savoury ( there is a hint of  sweetness but not overpowering )

The coleslaw is easy to make. I have used the green and a bit of red cabbage with a small carrot tossed in salad cream and mayonnaise. 

Serves 4-6

Time: 1 hour

For the chicken marinade

4 tbs dark soy sauce

salt and pepper

2-3 garlic minced

3 tbs brown sugar (soft)

2 tbs red wine vinegar

3 tbs tomato sauce (Heinz)

2 tbs olive oil

Red chilli flakes ( optional )

For the wedges

4-6 big potatoes, peeled and cut in wedges

1 tbs olive oil

Salt and pepper

For the coleslaw

2 cups shredded white/green cabbage

1/2 cup shredded red cabbage

1 medium carrot grated

3 tbs salad cream

1/4 cup mayonnaise

2 tbs milk

1 tsp icing sugar

salt and pepper

Method

First, mix all the ingredients for the marinade. Toss the wings in and let it sit for 10 minutes. 

 

Arrange the wings in a single layer and bake in preheated oven at 200'C for 25-30 minutes, basting the marinade on it. 

To bake the wedges, arrange the potatoes in one layer and tip it in the oven together with the wings. The wedges might take around, 40 to 45 minutes. so if your wings are cooked in the meantime, just remove and cover with the foil paper to rest.  ( or you can also start with the wedges first and tip the chicken wings in the last 25 minutes )

To prepare the coleslaw, mix all the ingredients in a bowl and stir well. Adjust the seasoning. The reason I always add a tsp of icing sugar to the coleslaw is to bring out the taste. 

Serve the wings and potato wedges with coleslaw on the side.
