Oven Roasted Miso Chicken Wings
Preparation Time: 15 min Cooking Time: 4.5 hours (4 hours marinade)
Ingredients:
3 lb Chicken Wings
1/4 cup Miso
1 cup Ketchup
8 cloves Garlic (minced)
1/2 cup Soy Sauce
3 tbsp Mirin or Honey
Directions:
1. Rinse wings and pat dry with paper towel. Cut through the joint of each wing to separate into two pieces using the tip of your knife and place wings in a Ziplock bag.
2. Mix all the remaining ingredients in a bowl and stir well. Add the marinade to the Ziplock and ensure all wings are well coated. Refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours or, for best results, leave in overnight.
3. Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Line a large baking tray with foil, then arrange the wings skin side down in one layer. Cook for 12 minutes, or until nicely browned. Then flip to skin side up and cook for another 15 mins until both sides are nicely browned.
