Beauty Lunchbox: How To Bake Tasty Chicken Wings That’ll Make Your Colleagues And Friends Drool

Tasty Baked Chicken Wings Lunchbox
I’ve been sharing my beauty lunchbox ideas with you for over a year and it’s time I go indepth by sharing some of my recipes with you. Let’s start with something simple and tasty today, something that most of you should enjoy eating—baked chicken wings!

I guess by now you’re drooling over the sight of these chicken wings. Well, I assure you that you’ll find them more than just delish looking—once you’ve sunk your teeth in them, you’ll be asking for more. Since I’ve no plans to sell chicken wings in the near future, I’ll be generous and impart my marinate recipe to anyone reading this who wants to make tasty chicken wings for baking, bbq or frying.

I inherited this marinate recipe from my mom and have used it for many years to win many tastebuds. I’m quite sure you’ll love it once you’d the chance to try it. It’s easily one of the best you’ll ever get to try and I’m only boasting because the credit goes to my mom.

The marinate recipe is really easy and only four ingredients are needed: honey, dark soy sauce, sesame oil and black pepper.

How To Marinate Chicken Wings
The recipe I’m about to share is good for two packets of eight chicken wings. Before you add the marinate, make sure you’ve washed the chicken wings thoroughly and gotten rid of any feather or dirt. I usually like to cut up the wings but you can leave them uncut–it’s up to you. Drain the chicken wings of excess water and leave them in a clean container or bowl.

Next, use a dry and clean tablespoon, scoop three tablespoons of honey into the bowl of chicken wings. Then add five tablespoons of dark soy sauce, five tablespoons of sesame oil and a dash of black pepper sauce. You can also add chopped garlic if you wish. Mix the marinate into the chicken wings and leave the marinate for eight to nine hours (keep them cold in the fridge), remembering to stir the marinated chicken wings at least once so that the marinate is evenly absorbed.

Once you’ve marinated the chicken wings for at least eight to nine hours, you can begin to prepare them for baking, bbq or frying. I’ve been baking them in a hot oven of 200 degrees C for 20 minutes, turning them once after 10 minutes to ensure the entire chicken wing is thoroughly baked.

clear honey
The thing I’ve found with this marinate is that I need to be careful with the choice of honey. I’ve tried different types of honey but the one that yields the best taste is the clear honey like what you see in my pictures. This particular one was a house brand I purchased from NTUC supermarket. According to its label, it is a product of Hungary and what I like about it is that it doesn’t harden even when refrigerated.

This marinate works well for chicken wings or other chicken parts. It also works well with pork if you like to eat that meat. I like this for my lunchbox because it is tasty and easy to prepare. The marinate takes time but I usually prepare mine the night before and the chicken wings are good to bake in the morning. Served best with rice or salad and you don’t have to reheat or warm up the chicken wings if you don’t want to. For those who do not prepare lunchbox, you can also try this in one of your meal preparations.

Give my recipe a try soon and let me know how you like it. And if you’ve got a special marinate sauce to share with me, do let me know in the comments.

    Hi Sesame.
    Do I pour all the marinade in together with the wings to bake in the oven?
    Thank you.

    Hi Sesame, I have tried out the recipe over the weekend. I went to deep fry them and they turned out charcoal black..oh my..hahaha.. Although you have mentioned that is for baking, bbq or frying, I don’t know why I kept on thinking of deep-frying. Will definitely try frying next time as I don’t have an oven at home. ?

  5. Sesame says:

    Ok, for deep frying, I suggest you add a batter (mix flour with egg into a batter and coat each chicken wing). It turned out charcoal black because of the honey…anything sweet will turn black when heated for too long. Even for baking, you got to watch the timing…turn after 10 mins. For frying, you just need to stir it frequently.

  6. Sesame says:

    You don’t need to pour the marinate in…if you do, the marinate will turn all black cos of the honey. Just place the wings on the baking dish. If some of the marinate goes on the tray, that’s fine as long as not too much. Remember to pre-heat your oven, and after you have put the wings in, turn them after 10 mins so they don’t get burned.

    Hope this will work out nicely for you…let me know how it turns out if you can. ?

  7. Kelly Woon says:

    The chicken wing is not fully cooked, please advice should I let it cook for another 5 minsor so?

  8. Sesame says:

    Oh sure! Did you heat up the oven prior to baking? If so, 20 mins should be enough. But no problem to add another 5, just that you’ll need to watch to ensure the chicken wings do not get burned cos the honey will cause them to blacken quite easy if left on high heat for too long.
