Paleo Chicken Wings

🧂 Ingredients

• 16 chicken wings

  drumettes and wingettes
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1.5 teaspoons salt
• 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
• 1.5 teaspoons cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon coriander seed powder
• Juice of 1/2 lime
• 3 cloves garlic

  finely chopped or grated
• 1.5 tablespoons olive oil
• Juice of 1 lime
• 2.5 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

  or regular paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon chill powder or cayenne

  more if you like more heat
• Leftover marinade from the chicken

Instructions

• 1 Cover the chicken pieces evenly with spices, lime juice, garlic and olive oil
  and rub all over. Ideally, you would marinate the chicken in the spice rub
  overnight or a few hours ahead of time, but if making on the day, then allow to
  stand for 15-20 minutes. You can also freeze them for 2 months (defrost
  overnight).
• 2 Preheat the oven to 200 C / 400 F and line a large sheet or a flat tray with
  some parchment paper. Grease the paper with a little olive oil or coconut oil.
• 3 Place the chicken pieces on the tray and bake in the oven for 25 minutes.
• 4 In the meantime, mix the glaze ingredients with the leftover marinade in a large
  bowl and set aside.
• 5 Remove from the oven and transfer the pre-cooked chicken to the bowl with the
  glaze mixture. Toss through to coat evenly, and then place the glazed wings back
  on the tray. Cook in the oven for 7 more minutes until the glaze gets a little
  sticky and caramelized.
• 6 Remove from the oven and arrange on a platter. You can sprinkle the chicken with
  chopped fresh coriander (cilantro) and chopped spring onions or chives. I like
  to serve them with a few lime wedges for people to drizzle more if they like.
