- Why did the marinade burn?
- The sugar content of honey caramelises and burns very quickly. If it looks too brown, cover with aluminium foil.
- Can I use chicken breast?
- Yes, but breast is a much drier meat. It requires a shorter baking time, otherwise the meat will be like shoe leather.
Honey mustard chicken wings
This recipe is built on the harmony of contrasts: the sweetness of the honey softens the sharpness and acidity of the mustard, while the oven heat caramelises the sugars on the chicken skin. The result is a sticky, shiny glaze, under which the meat remains juicy and the skin bakes to a crunch.

Instructions
Thoroughly dry the chicken wings with kitchen paper. Salt and pepper them.
Mix the honey, mustard, oil, and crushed garlic in a bowl until you get a homogeneous emulsion.
Toss the wings in the marinade to coat evenly. Let stand for 30 minutes (or even overnight).
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the wings on a baking tray lined with baking paper, spaced apart.
Bake for approx. 35-40 minutes. Turn them halfway through and brush with the remaining marinade.
