Barbecue Chicken Wings

This high-protein dish offers a sophisticated take on classic barbecue chicken wings, featuring a complex, multi-layered sauce that balances sweet, tangy, and smoky notes. By making the sauce from scratch with ingredients like cider vinegar, dark brown sugar, and smoked paprika, you achieve a depth of flavour far superior to any shop-bought alternative. The wings are slowly baked in the oven until the glaze becomes beautifully sticky and the meat is tender, providing a satisfying savoury snack or main course.

Perfect for weekend gatherings or as a nutritious boost for those following an active lifestyle, these wings are incredibly versatile. You can prepare the signature sauce up to two weeks in advance, making this an ideal recipe for stress-free entertaining. Serve them piled high on a platter with a garnish of fresh spring onions, perhaps accompanied by a crisp green salad or some cooling celery sticks to balance the gentle heat of the chilli and Tabasco.

How to make Barbecue Chicken Wings

  1. Prepare the barbecue sauce ahead of time: Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring, to heat through and to blend the flavours, 10 to 12 minutes. Do not boil. Strain to remove the garlic. Cool to room temperature. (Makes 725ml .) Use immediately or refrigerate, covered, for up to 2 weeks.

  2. Preheat the oven to 350ºF.

  3. Using a sharp knife, separate the chicken wings at the joint. Set aside.

  4. Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl and toss well with 350ml the sauce. Lay the pieces in a single layer on 2 or 3 baking sheets (do not overcrowd them). Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, basting once or twice with additional sauce. Serve the wings on a platter and sprinkle with the spring onions.
