Honey Baked Chicken Wings | Motherhood Malaysia

My family and I love eating chicken wings. You can never go wrong with chicken wings, especially at times like these as they are inexpensive, tender and totally delicious. However, I dislike the hassle of deep frying them hence I always opt to bake them instead. Besides, it is also healthier to bake rather than fry as chicken wings in the oven come out a whole lot less greasy. One of our all-time favourites is honey baked chicken wings. They are deliciously sweet and sticky and makes the perfect appetiser. If you are looking for a simple no hassle meal option, then this is definitely it. I love using honey in my cooking as besides being delicious, honey contains endless health benefits. One of the most important benefits of honey lies in its antioxidant properties. Antioxidants help to protect our body from cell damage due to free radicals. Honey also tastes great as sugar replacement and when used for baking chicken wings, it adds great flavour as well as promotes caramelizing for crispier skin. Other ingredients used for the simple yet delicious marinate are the common Asian flavours such as soy sauce and oyster (or fish) sauce. Chicken wings should be baked until golden. This usually takes about 45 minutes in the oven. The trick to not burning the seasoning is to use honey in the marinate and not as the glaze. If you glaze the wings with honey before baking, the seasoning may easily burn or blacken.
