These wings are marinaded in classic Vietnamese flavours then grilled to perfection on the barbecue! They can also be cooked in the oven.
Ingredients
▢2 lb / 1 kg chicken wings , cut into wingettes and drumettes (see here for how to cut whole wings)
▢Oil for grilling
MARINADE
▢4 cloves minced garlic
▢1/4 cup lime juice (2 to 3 limes)
▢1/4 cup fish sauce
▢2 tbsp soy sauce
▢3 tbsp brown sugar
▢2 tbsp vegetable oil
▢2 stalks lemongrass
GARNISHES (OPTIONAL)
▢1 birds eye chilli , finely chopped
▢Coriander leaves
Instructions
Bruise the lemongrass using the side of your knife (or a pestle). Slice the white part only into 0.5cm / 1/4″ slices, thick enough to pick off later if any stick to the wings.
Combine lemongrass with the rest of the marinade ingredients and mix well.
Combine marinade with wings in a ziplock bag. Remove as much air as possible from the bag and seal. Massage marinade into the wings to evenly disperse.
Marinate for at least a few hours, preferably overnight.
