Spicy crispy roasted chicken wings - woo lah lah !

Spicy and crispy, who does not like to hear those words? Plus, a healthy way of cooking - bake or roast :)

Additional perks - eaSY! Me in more gLEEeeee! :) :)


This should go well with Nasi Lemak or Sambal Seafood Fried Rice

Baked/Roasted Spicy Chicken Wings
Ingredients: galangal powder, crushed garlic, turmeric powder, crushed ginger, coriander powder, curry powder, sambal belacan, some lime juice, salt

WOOPS! I did not measure the quantities as I just added dashes of them into the mixing bag with the chicken wings. As a gauge, the proportion ratio should be about 1: 1.5 : 2

The quantity and proportion equation...for 1: 1.5 : 2 ratio
galangal powder = crushed garlic = turmeric powder < crushed ginger = coriander powder < curry powder = sambal belacan

Hope I have not confused you with the Math :P



Directions: Marinate for at least 2 hrs or more. When ready to bake, preheat the oven. Place chicken on a foil pan and drizzle some olive oil on it. Roast/bake at 325F for 25-35mins, then last 5mins, increase temperature to 350-360F for added crispiness. (Note: the oven temp may depend on the parts of chicken you have used. Some chicken parts have thicker portions of meat and may take longer to cook).

Outcome: Oh...so delicious. Spicy to perfection - not too overpowering. Combination of spices...miraculous! Moist in the inside, crispy on the outside



Guilt: None (IMO only)

Justification: Deep pool of frying oil not required. Deep-frying pan not required. No splatter of oil on the kitchen stove and floor. Just need a temperature-controlled oven.

Hmmm...when there is no guilt, where comes the justification? No need! DUH! :O

Now you have seen this spicy baked/roasted chicken wings, I don't think you care for this steamed chicken ?

    This chicken wings does look like fried chicken wings. I can't believe it is baked.

  16. Oh dear ... those fried chicken wings looks sinfully yummie! I like the fact that it is oven baked. Must try one day.

    Oh crap ... need to convert 325F to degree ... ha ha ha. Different conversion used here.

    I personally prefer steam chicken :)

  17. nate 2.0, I bought the galangal powder from Lion. It's really easier to use than galangal itself but of course, the raw galangal would have more flavor.

    little corner, also bone lickin good! Even feel like biting the bones :P

    SAHM, it's mush crispier if you deep-fry. For the last 5 mins, it will add some light crisp, but it's still good.

    firehorse, which section of the wing you like? I don't like the little drumstick, prefer the middle-joint and that tiny part :D

    pablopabla, hahahah!

    lydia, the spices are really good. Do you have all of those in your pantry ?

    anh, no more left! :P Next time!

    blurmommy, really? you blur blur....this one I really agak-agak leh ;)

    valentina, oh ye, lady! I regretted not making enough.

    judy, you try, okie?

    wmw, both hands both legs up!

    windy, indeed.

    RM, can I do barter trade with your lobster?LOL!

    katiez, I totally enjoy chicken wings to the bones. While I was younger, I used to bite on the bones and suck out the marrow - can you believe it?
    But ever since I know it's not really good to do that, I stop.

    wilfrid, really? You really care more for steamed chick?

  18. Actually, I would prefer the steam chicken mainly because it's easier to eat and less messy.

    See, not only am I lazy cook (I rarely cook), I'm also a lazy eater. I don't like to work for my food. :-)

    So how about some spicy crispy roasted chicken tenders. Saya mahu 2 order, please.

  21. ming, I would prefer steam chicken maybe when I eat out coz it's less messy.
    Okie okie,, next time I'll try the chicken tenders :)

  23. These wings are grrrrreat. And you are right, they would go well with fried rice too.

    ReplyDelete
  24. eliza, ha..you are so correct. That's why I never bake. You do both so well :)

    cynthia, we can go fly (with wings) and fry (the rice) :P

  25. Ikea here serves very nice fried chicken wings but yours look even nicer. They are not fried and are well-seasoned with hot spice some more. Hmm... I like.
