First thing we need To prepare is the marinade. Start with 3 tablespoons of Olive oil And 2 tablespoons of soy sauce. Add chopped herbs to choose from, I used Fresh rosemary, But thyme will also work great. Add about 2 tablespoons of honey And the juice from one half of a lemon. Continue with 3 nails minced garlic And wrap it in a generous amount of Salt and black pepper. Mix properly and our marinade is ready.
India wings are usually quite large so it is better Cut them into 2 parts. Locate the connection and cut it with a sharp knife, it should pass quite easily.
Note: You can leave the wings completely intact, but when cut into 2 parts they will bake a little faster and it is easier to spread them evenly on the pan or baking tray.
One tip now. The marinade will need a How many hours Season the meat properly, but I did not want to wait. So to make sure we have enough flavors, I add a little More salt and pepper from both sides. Massage the wings slightly to make sure the spices are evenly distributed. If you have time, leave the marinated wings in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight.
The next step is to watch the turkey wings in our marinade. Add them one by one and make sure every single part is Properly covered With the marinade.
Place the wings at the bottom a Deep baking pan now. If possible, leave some space between the parts. And definitely do not throw away the excess marinade. Pour it over the wings for maximum flavor.
advice: The spaces between the wings will allow them to bake on all sides better, which equates to crispier skin.
To make sure the wings do not burn from below, add a A little water. Do not pour the water directly on the wings, it will wash out the delicious marinade. And do not add too much water, Quarter inch That’s all we need. Alternatively, the water can be replaced with Chicken stockBut it’s optional.
Cover the baking pan with foil And put it in the oven you preheated it in 425F or 220C. Bake about 50-60 minutes.
While the wings are baking, Let’s make some tomatoes Which we will add to the baking pan below. I use about Half a cup of cherry tomatoes That I cut in half. Some herbs will make it even better so let’s cut a Some branches of fresh basil For larger pieces.
Mix it with the tomatoes, touch Salt And some freshly ground black pepper. You can also add a little Olive oil.
It’s time to check out the wings of India now. Remove the foil and Base the meat in juices. The meat should be Tender fork Until now so come on Add the tomatoes and basil mixture. Use a spoon and fill all the empty spaces. Do not place the tomatoes on the meat, pushing them down into the juices.
And back to the oven. Raise the temperature to 475 F or 250C And bake until the skin is turned over Golden and crisp brown. It should take about 20 minutes. Please remember we used honey In the marinade. Because of this, the skin color will become darker as the honey caramelizes, That’s fine.
And we’re done. Our perfectly baked turkey wings are ready. Serve them with Rice, mashed potatoes or vegetable salad.
