Papaya Recipes
CategoryDinner
INGREDIENTS
2 kg chicken wings
2 tsp olive oil
1 cup pureed fresh papaya (250g)
¼ cup packed brown sugar (60g)
½ cup fresh orange juice (125 ml)
2 tsp fresh lime juice
1 tsp fresh grated ginger
1 tsp chilli powder or smoked paprika
1 tsp sea salt
TO GARNISH
fresh coriander leaves
fresh papaya
lemon and lime wedges
METHOD
1
Cut chicken wings into wingettes and drumettes, discard tips (or buy wings which have already been split into sections). Combine all marinade ingredients in a large bowl and mix well. Add wing sections and toss to coat.
2
Set wings aside for 30 mins to marinate. Preheat oven to 200°C. Line two rimmed oven trays with baking paper.
3
Remove wings from bowl, reserving marinade, and arrange in a single layer – skin side up – over the prepared trays.
4
Bake 25 – 30 minutes, basting with the remaining marinade twice during cooking. The wings are done when they are sticky and golden, and the meat separates easily when pulled.
5
Serve with coriander leaves, fresh papaya, and citrus wedges.
