Lemon Soy Chicken Wings Recipes

LEMON-SOY CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Note: I had to put counts in the ingredients list for the recipe to be accepted, but this recipe works for any amount of wings.
• Cut up chicken wings into segments if necessary. Place in a suitable container for marinating.
• Mix soy sauce and lemon juice in equal parts, making enough to completely cover chicken wings in their container.
• Marinate in refrigerator overnight, but no longer than 24 hours.
• Drain wings and discard marinade.
• Arrange wings in a single layer on a baking sheet or sheet pan. Use foil if you want to save elbow grease cleaning the pan later. Depending upon the number of wings, make multiple batches.
• Place wings under preheated broiler, about 6 to 8 inches from unit.
• Broil on each side until you think you've burnt them. Really. These are best when they are very dark brown, just before they really start to burn. For my broiler, this is about 10 minutes per side.
• Be prepared to make these for every holiday party you will every attend again. Your hosts will demand it.
• Frozen chicken wing segments (thawed) seem to actually work out better than fresh. Go figure.
• Reconstituted lemon juice is fine.

STICKY HONEY-SOY CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Rinse chicken wings and pat dry. Remove tip and discard; separate each wing at the joint into 2 pieces. Place wings in a shallow dish and pour over the soy sauce, ginger, cilantro, garlic, and lemon juice. Toss well to coat; marinate, refrigerated, for 2 hours.
• Remove wings from marinade and pat dry; season with salt and pepper. In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter in the olive oil. When the butter stops foaming, add the honey and chicken wings and fry until browned on each side, about 5 minutes. Continue cooking the wings, turning them over often to coat them as the glaze reduces. Cook until the wings are sticky and cooked through. Garnish with sesame seeds and serve.

CHINESE CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Stir the soy sauce, brown sugar, and garlic powder together in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir until the sugar melts completely. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
• Place the chicken wings in a large bowl. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the wings and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Allow chicken to marinate in refrigerator overnight or 8 hours.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour the chicken wings and marinade into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until thoroughly hot, about 45 minutes. Remove the aluminum foil from the baking dish and continue baking uncovered another 15 minutes. Serve hot.

LEMON GARLIC CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a bowl, cover and refrigerate for several hours.
• Drain wings and reserve marinade.
• Place wings in baking dish and bake in moderately hot oven for 35 minutes or until tender, brushing occasionally with reserved marinade.

LEMONY ROASTED CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Rinse potatoes with lukewarm water and pat dry.
• Spread chicken wings out on a baking sheet or cutting board in a single layer. Season both sides of wings generously with salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Sprinkle with red-pepper flakes as desired.
• Transfer seasoned wings to a large bowl. Add olive oil, lemon slices, rosemary and garlic and toss well with (plastic-gloved) hands so everything is evenly coated.
• Place potatoes on the bottom of a roasting pan. Arrange seasoned wings over potatoes in a single layer. Add wine and cover pan tightly with foil.
• Bake, covered, for about 45 minutes, until potatoes are done. Remove foil and return the pan to the oven and bake about 20 minutes more, until wings are nicely browned. Using tongs, turn wings over and bake for another 20 minutes to brown the wings' other side. Sprinkle with dried oregano, and serve hot or at room temperature.

HONEY LIME CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the honey, lime juice, lime peel, garlic, salt and ground black pepper.
• Place the flour in a plastic bag and shake the chicken wings in the flour to coat.
• In a large skillet, fry the chicken wings in hot, 1 inch deep oil until cooked through. Place the cooked wings in the honey/lime mixture and toss to coat well. Serve immediately.
