Trying out a new recipe tonight which sounds good on paper but the test is in the eating/taste. As a twist it uses Roses Lime Marmalade which I am a big fan of. (Just bought a jar of their grapefruit one to try, though not in this...promise)
20 chicken wings or 10 drumsticks (or combo)
4 tablespoons lime marmalade
2 tablespoons soft dark brown sugar
1-2 red chillies chopped (seeds in or out depending on how hot you like it)
3 large garlic cloves crushed
1" piece of ginger, peeled and finely choped
2 limes, zest and juice
To serve: sour cream, extra lime wedges, a green salad, chopped green coriander.
Mix marmalade and sugar together. Add the rest of the ingredients. Chuck in chicken and coat with marinade. Leave for an hour in fridge or as long as you've got up to 24 hours.
Spread out in a large roasting tin in a single layer. Try and keep a space between each piece or will sweat rather than brown, use 2 tins if necessary. Roast in a medium hot oven til cooked. About 30-40 mins at Gas mark 6/200C for wings and another 10 mins for drumsticks. If using a combo, put drumsticks in first for 10-15 mins then add wings. Turn them over half way. If get to brown cover with foil.
Serve on big plate, sprinkled over with the coriander. Sour cream and salad on side. I'm doing new potatoes tossed in olive oil and sea salt but would also be good with crusty bread.
Pud's a summer fruit trifle or strawberry and rhubarb icecream with a cherry compote....way to go....I love having friends round to share a meal.
