Cajun Chicken Wings

These delicious wings are marinated in white wine and TABASCO® Brand Pepper Sauce, then slow roasted with dark brown sugar, chilli, paprika, tomato puree, onions and garlic and extra TABASCO® Brand Pepper Sauce to give a wonderful rich and vibrant sticky coating. The ultimate finger food.

450g/1lb chicken wings
200ml/7floz dry white wine
1 tbsp TABASCO® Brand Pepper Sauce
1 onion, peeled and finely chopped
1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
75g/3oz dark brown sugar
1 red chilli, seeded and chopped
1 heaped tsp paprika
1 tbsp tomato puree
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp freshly ripped coriander leaves
extra TABASCO® Brand Pepper Sauce for serving

Cut wing tips from wings and discard. Halve remainder at the joint to give two pieces per wing. Place in a bowl. Pour over white wine and TABASCO® Sauce and leave for 30 minutes.

Transfer to a roasting dish with a slotted spoon. Add onion, garlic, sugar, chilli, paprika and tomato puree to wine mix and stir. Season. Pour over wings. Bake in a pre-heated oven Gas 5, 375F, 190C for 30 minutes, covered with foil. Remove foil and continue cooking, turning wings over occasionally, until sauce is reduced to a sticky, aromatic coating. Scatter over coriander and serve sprinkled with extra TABASCO® Sauce.
