20 Servings
Ingredients
- 8 cloves garlic peeled and crushed
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon tamari soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 20 chicken wing drummettes
Instructions
Prepare the Marinade
- Rinse the chicken wing drummettes thoroughly and pat them completely dry. Place the wings in a large bowl or sealable marinade bag. In a separate bowl, combine the crushed garlic, honey, Dijon mustard, tamari soy sauce, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the marinade is fully incorporated and smooth.
Marinate the Chicken
- Pour the prepared marinade over the chicken wings. Ensure each wing is evenly coated. Seal the bowl or bag and refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour and up to 24 hours to allow the flavors to develop.
Prepare the Oven
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a roasting pan with aluminum foil for easier cleanup. Place a baking rack over the lined pan to allow heat circulation and promote even crisping.
Roast the Chicken Wings
- Arrange the marinated wings on the rack in a single layer, leaving space between each piece. Roast for 25 to 35 minutes, depending on the size of the drummettes, or until the wings are fully cooked, deeply browned, and crisp along the edges.
