Honey-Garlic Baked Chicken Wings with Oven Fries & Crisp Coleslaw

These wings are made from whole chicken wings—a great cut that delivers juicy meat with crispy skin. Paired with golden oven-baked fries and tangy coleslaw, this meal turns wings into a balanced, crowd-pleasing dinner.

Ingredients (for about 1 kg wings, serves 4–5):

• Chicken Wings

  • 1 kg (approx. whole wings, cut into drumettes and flats)

• For the Wings

  • 2 tbsp honey

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • ½ tsp black pepper

  • Optional: a pinch of red pepper flakes

• For the Oven Fries

  • 500 g potatoes, washed and cut into fries

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • ½ tsp salt, ¼ tsp black pepper

• For the Coleslaw

  • 200 g shredded cabbage (or coleslaw mix)

  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice or vinegar

  • ½ tsp sugar

  • Salt + pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Prep & bake the wings

   • Preheat oven to 200 °C.

   • In a bowl, whisk honey, soy sauce, oil, garlic, and pepper. Toss wings in the marinade.

   • Arrange wings on a lined baking sheet—no overcrowding.

   • Bake for 25–30 minutes until golden and cooked through, flipping halfway.

2. Oven Fries

   • Toss fries in oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a separate sheet.

   • Bake alongside wings (same oven) for about 25–30 minutes, turning once, until crispy.

3. Coleslaw

   • In a bowl, combine mayo, lemon juice, sugar, salt, and pepper.

   • Add cabbage, toss to coat. Chill until serving.

Seasoning & Serving:

• Seasoning twist: Sprinkle wings with extra black pepper or red pepper flakes for a mild kick.

• Serving: Arrange wings and fries on a big platter. Serve the coleslaw on the side in a bowl. Garnish the wings with a drizzle of extra honey and chopped spring onions or sesame seeds for shine.
