Maple-glazed hot wings in a serving dish with dip

1kg chicken wings
a little oil
for the tray

For the rub

½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp ground black pepper
½ tsp ground coriander
1 tsp dark brown soft sugar
1 tsp garlic powder
2½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp dried oregano
½ tsp dried thyme

For the glaze

75g butter
75g cider vinegar
75ml hot sauce
50ml maple syrup

Method

step 1
To make the rub, mix together all the ingredients in a large bowl with a large pinch of salt. Add the chicken wings and toss to coat in the spices. If you’ve got time, chill and marinate for up to 24 hrs.
step 2
Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. , transfer the wings to the tray and roast for 40-45 mins until they are cooked through. Turn the oven up to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and roast for a further 10 mins until golden brown and crispy.
step 3
Meanwhile, make the glaze by heating the butter, vinegar, hot sauce and maple syrup in a small saucepan. Bring to the boil over a high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer gently for 5 mins or until the glaze has thickened. Remove the wings from the oven and while they are still hot, pour over the glaze and carefully mix using a spoon to roll and coat them evenly. They should be nice and glossy. Serve with your favourite dip.
