Oven baked Crispy Lemongrass Turmeric chicken wings

Ingredients 1 kg of fresh chicken wings washed and drained dry

Seasonings:

Add 1 tablespoon of turmeric powder
Add 1 teaspoon of ground pepper
Add 1/2 tablespoon of  brown sugar
Add 1 egg (beaten mix well)

Add 2 stalks of lemongrass (washed & cut halves and smash them flat to release the aroma)

Add 1/2 tablespoon of truffle salt or seasalt

Method:

Mix all the seasonings and wings together.

I use a glove and massage the wings

Next, place the wings into a ziplock bag.

Marinate overnight if possible.

If not, I usually marinate in the morning and cook over dinner time.

Method:

Preheat  the oven in grill mode till 220 degrees for about 10 minutes

Coat the wings with self raising flour on both sides

Dust off excess flour and place on a baking sheet

By the time you finish all the wings, the flour should have absorbed into the wings. ( you will see less flour on the wings)

Place the tray into the oven and baked for 30 to 35 mins till crispy and brown on both sides

Remember to turn the wings in the first 15 mins to bake the other side.

Enjoy !



Special thanks to my baking and cooking buddy Christine Tan for sharing her recipe. I did some modification to suit my taste bud. I choose to oven bake instead of frying for a healthier recipe.
