AROMATIC SPICY CHICKEN WINGS

There are many recipes to try from my selected cookbook for this month [Yum Yum Magazine No. 48] for Cookbook Countdown Event.
I have bookmarked this recipe to try earlier but keep putting it off cos' it is chicken wings.  I love chicken whole legs more than chicken wings.  Today, luck was with me, the chicken vendor was very kind to de-bone 6 chicken wings for me without extra charges.  Many thanks to him, much time is saved.
These chicken wings are tender, aromatic and delicious.  Simple recipe yet awesome in taste.
Recipe adapted from my selected cookbook for Cookbook Countdown Event #5 -Yum Yum Magazine No. 48 [modified]

  2. Hi Phong Hong, I like the meaty part of the chicken wings, not the middle or end tip. For this dish, I ate the meat part and leave the rest to the young lady in my house. She loves any part of the wings.

  3. Hi Kimmy,
    I love chicken wings more than thighs! The butcher is so kind to debone the chicken wings for you! The dish looks so delicious, and I think I could finish quite a few myself!
    You can use this same book again to continue on to cook for next month at CC. No problem!
