Peppered, Sesame, Soy Sauce Chicken Wings

This is a very moist chicken wings recipe.  The marinade process and slow roasting really enhances and intensifies the flavors.

Ingredients

  • 4-5 Pounds Chicken Wingettes
  • 1 Tablespoon Garlic Minced
  • 1 Tablespoon Fresh Thyme Finely Chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Five Spice Powder
  • 2 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 3 Tablespoons Soy Sauce Use a quality soy sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons Sesame Oil Use a quality Sesame Oil
  • 3 Scallions (Optional) Chopped to your liking for Garnish
  • 1-2 Tablespoons Olive Oil For greasing the baking sheet

Instructions

  • Rinse the chicken wings under cold running water and pat dry with paper towel
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the first 7 ingredients and with a spoon mix until blended (a few seconds will do)
  • Add the chicken wings to the marinade and using your fingers mix in the marinade so that all the wings are thoroughly coated
  • Cover with plastic wrap and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least two hours (or up to overnight)
  • Remove the wings from the fridge 30 minutes prior to cooking to allow for it to be at room temperature
  • Preheat the over to 350 degrees (I use the roast setting on my oven)
  • Grease a large baking sheet pan with the olive oil (I usually line the pan with aluminum foil and oil the foil instead - this makes for easy cleanup)
  • Spread the wings in a single layer on the lined baking sheet pan and pour any remaining marinade over the chicken
  • Bake for one hour total - turn the wings over half-way through the cooking time
  • Remove the wings and plate. Garnish with the scallions
    Enjoy!

Notes

I use a very good quality sesame oil and soy sauce which I usually purchase at any Asian Supermarket.  Fresh ground black pepper makes for a more intense pepper flavor; as a matter of fact I only use fresh ground black pepper in all my recipes.
