Wings in Honey-Soy Sauce – Gluten-free version

👨‍🍳 Method

1. 1
   Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Mix the garlic, paprika, honey, gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger and black pepper and rub the mixture into the chicken.

   💡Dry the chicken before seasoning so the mixture clings to the skin; a longer marinade gives deeper color and flavor.
2. 2
   Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking pan with parchment paper.

   ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven

   💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
3. 3
   Arrange the chicken in the pan in a single layer, with space between the pieces.

   Bake uncovered 35 minutes, until the wings are browned and cooked through. Halfway through, turn the pieces.

   💡In a single layer with space around each piece, the hot air surrounds it and the skin browns and crisps; crowded pieces steam in their own juices.

   💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
