Ethiopian Chicken Wings

Ingredients

• 16 chicken wings, split and tips discarded
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2/3 cup soy sauce (mild or low-sodium)
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger

Directions

1. 1

   Place chicken wings and onion in a soup pot, and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook for 20 minutes.

2. 2

   Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). While the wings are cooking, combine the soy sauce, cinnamon, cloves and ginger in a saucepan, and warm over medium heat. When chicken is done, drain water (may be reserved for other uses as a broth), and pour in the soy sauce mixture. Stir to coat all of the wings, then place them in a single layer on a cookie sheet.

3. 3

   Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the outsides are crispy. Baste with sauce as desired while cooking. Hint: Bake on parchment paper or non-stick foil to keep the wings from sticking and to make clean-up easy. The side of the wing facing the baking sheet will get the crispiest.
