Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Chicken wings
- 0.25 cup Dry sherry
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry sherry, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, olive oil, paprika, ground black pepper, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure crispiness. Add the wings to the marinade, tossing to coat evenly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper, and place a wire rack on top. Lightly grease the rack to prevent sticking.
Arrange the marinated chicken wings in a single layer on the wire rack, shaking off any excess marinade. Reserve the remaining marinade for later use.
Bake the wings for 20 minutes, then flip them over using tongs. Brush the wings with the reserved marinade, and continue baking for another 20 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
For extra crispiness, switch the oven to broil for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter.
Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
