Method
Mince the garlic6 and mix with soy sauce, honey, balsamic vinegar, tomato5 paste, and black pepper.
Pat the wings dry and toss them thoroughly in the glaze.
Arrange the wings in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 35–40 minutes, flipping once, until the skin is dark and sticky.
Check for doneness: the juices should run clear, and the meat should pull away easily from the joint.
Tips
- Why it works
- Grate the garlic instead of chopping it, so it doesn't turn bitter and spreads evenly in the glaze. Hold the temperature at 200 °C so the crust seals and doesn't burn.
- Substitutions
- Replace the honey with sugar syrup (15 g) or liquid honey with water 1:1. Replace the balsamic with apple cider vinegar (12 g), but the glaze will be less sweet.
- Common mistakes
- If the wings are dry and brown outside but raw inside, you turned them too late. Check after 25 minutes.
- Storing and reheating
- Keep for 2 days in the fridge. Reheat in the oven at 180 °C for 10 minutes with a spoonful of water in the dish so they don't dry out.
- Serve with
- Serve with mashed potatoes and pickled cucumbers at a festive dinner, when you want something hearty and special.
