This is a great recipe for those who love Szechuan orange chicken
It is easier than the stir fried version done with the chicken meat
You can serve it with rice for a main course, but I like to serve it as finger food as an appetizer
2 lb chicken wings
Marinade
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 tpss minced ginger root
4 tpss minced ginger root
3 green onions, minced
1/3 cup Hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon hot Chinese chili paste
2 Tbspfrozen orange juice concentrate
2 Tbspgrated orange peel
3 Tbspsoy sauce
3 Tbsphoney
1/2 tps oriental sesame oil
Cut off the wings tips & reserve for making stock
Cut the remaining wing in half
Combine all the ingredients for the marinade
Add the wings to the marinade, place in a clean plastic bag, tie securely & marinate for a few hrs in the refrigerator, turning the bag occasionally to make sure the wings are well coated
Preheat the oven to 400 deg F
Line a baking dish with parchment paper
Arrange the wings in a single layer
Bake for 20 min, brush with the marinade, turn wings, brush other side & bake 15 min longer
Serve hot or at room temp
