Didn’t someone say ‘hot, sticky wings’? Yes, please!

Ingredients:

Chicken:

8 x chicken wings

15ml canola oil

80ml maple syrup

15ml Dijon mustard

30ml Sriracha sauce

30ml balsamic vinegar

20ml soy sauce

5ml garlic powder

Salt and pepper

 

Sweet potato chips:

250g sweet potatoes

20ml canola oil

5ml corn starch

2.5ml smoked paprika

2.5ml garlic powder

salt and pepper

Method:

Chicken:

● Preheat the oven to 200°C.

● Mix the canola oil, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, Sriracha sauce, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce and garlic together. Season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper.

● Line an oven tray with foil and put the chicken wings onto it. Pour half the sauce over the wings, making sure they are evenly coated.

● Roast the wings for 40 minutes, then turn the heat up to 220°C. Add the remaining sauce and roast on high heat for 8 minutes.

 

Sweet potato chips:

● Line a baking tray with foil. Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into even sized chips.

● Whisk together the canola oil, corn starch, smoked paprika and garlic powder in a bowl. Season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the mixture over the chips and toss to coat them evenly.

● Spread the chips out evenly over the baking tray and put them in the oven at the same time as the chicken, at 200°C.

● Bake for 20 minute and then turn the potatoes over and bake for another 20 minutes.

Remove from the oven and serve hot with the sticky chicken wings.
