Honey-Sesame Grilled Chicken Wings Ingredients: * 1/2 cup soy sauce * 1 tablespoon minced ginger * 1 tablespoon minced garlic * 1 tablespoon Asian chili paste * 2 pounds chicken wings, tips removed, cut apart at joint * 1/2 cup honey * 1 1/2 teaspoons hoisin sauce * 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds * 1 green onion, trimmed and chopped Preparation: 1. In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and chili paste. Add chicken and let marinate for 15 minutes, stirring often. 2. Set up a gas or charcoal grill for medium heat (350° to 400°; you can hold your hand 5 in. above the cooking grate only 5 to 7 seconds). Put chicken on the grill and cover with lid. Cook, turning often, until golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. 3. In a small bowl, combine honey and hoisin sauce. Using a pastry brush, generously baste chicken wings with honey glaze. Cover grill with lid and cook till honey glaze starts to caramelize, about 3 minutes. Turn chicken wings over and baste again, using the remaining honey glaze. Cook for 3 minutes more, being careful not to let the glaze burn, removing pieces from the grill as they’re done. 4. Transfer to a platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve any remaining honey glaze on the side. Makes 6 to 8 appetizer servings or 2 main course servings and takes 45 minutes to prepare. From Sunset Magazine recipes June 2008
