They really should call Superbowl Sunday the official U.S. junk food “holiday” of the year. At very minimum, it is a good excuse to make loads of snack-y munchies. To wit, these here wings and drummies. Not really junk food because all the ingredients are relatively good for you. Just don’t eat all 4 pounds… by yourself. Bring napkins. Maybe a bib too.
Ingredients
4 pounds chicken wings or small drumsticks
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon coarse or kosher salt, plus more to taste
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons mild honey
2 teaspoons Asian sesame oil
Dash of Sriracha*, more to taste
1 1/2 tablespoons sesame seeds, lightly toasted
1 scallion, finely chopped
Directions
Heat oven to 425F. Line a large shallow baking pan with aluminum foil and lightly spray with baking spray.
In a large work bowl, whisk together the garlic, salt, soy, hoisin, honey, sesame oil and Sriracha until coated. Add the wings and toss until coated. Spread wings and any sauce that fell to the bottom of the bowl out on the prepared baking pan in one layer. Roast, turning over once, until cooked through, about 35-40 minutes. Transfer wings and drummies to a large serving bowl and toss with sesame seeds and scallion.
