This recipe is about the joy of eating with sticky fingers. The sugar content of the honey caramelises in the oven, creating a shiny glaze, whilst the acidity and heat of the mustard cuts through this sweetness. Simple, but chemistry makes it great: the reaction of sugar and protein on the surface of the meat creates irresistible flavours.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Large bowl for marinating
  • Baking tray with baking paper
  • Brush for basting

Allergen Information

⚠️ Mustard
⚠️ Soya
⚠️ Cereals containing gluten

Instructions

1 ✓

Clean the wings, cut off the wing tips. Dry them completely with kitchen paper.

Tip: Moisture is the enemy of crispy skin. If the skin is wet, it will steam, not roast.
2 ✓

Mix the marinade: honey, mustard, garlic, soy sauce, oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper.

Tip: Mustard acts as an emulsifier too, helping to bind the oil and honey into a creamy marinade.
3 ✓

Toss the wings in the marinade and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (but even overnight).

4 ✓

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the wings on the baking tray (set the remaining marinade aside).

Tip: Don't crowd them, leave room for the hot air to circulate between the pieces.
5 ✓

Bake for 20 minutes, then remove, turn, brush with the remaining marinade, and bake for another 15-20 minutes until sticky and brown.

Tip: Layered basting builds up the thick, flavourful glaze.
6 ✓

Serve sprinkled with parsley and offer bread alongside.

Recipe FAQ

Why did the wings burn?
Honey burns very quickly. If it browns too soon, cover with foil, or bake at a lower temperature and only grill at the end.
