OFF TO A SOARING START
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Pat the Chicken wings dry with paper towel. Place on a roasting tray with the carrot wedges. Coat in oil and seasoning. Pop in the hot oven and roast for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and starting to crisp, shifting halfway. In the final 5 minutes, turn the oven on to grill setting or the highest temperature to crisp the chicken skin.
ADD THE STICKY AND SWEET
In a bowl, combine the Bourbon, maple syrup, tomato paste, tabasco (to taste), 15ml of water, and seasoning. Set aside. Loosen the mayo with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.
LET US MAKE LETTUCE
Halve the lettuce head lengthways, keeping the stem intact. Gently rinse and pat dry. Place a pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, char the lettuce halves, cut-side down, for 2-3 minutes. Remove from the pan and season.
DIP, FLOUR AND FRY
Place the flour (seasoned generously) in a shallow dish. Place the Milk in a second dish. Coat the marrow strips in the milk first and then the flour. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, add the floured strips and fry for 2-3 minutes until browned. Use a slotted spoon to gently flip the strips as they brown. Drain on paper towel and season.
SMOTHER IN DELICIOUSNESS
Place a pan over a medium heat. When hot, add a knob of butter and the Bourbon sauce. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until reduced and sticky. Lower the heat and add the roasted wings. Simmer for 2-3 until sticky, continually tossing the wings in the sauce. Set aside. Just before serving, combine the baby marrow fries and the carrot wedges.
IT’S Chicken WING HEAVEN!
Plate up the sticky Chicken wings drizzled with any pan juices. Serve with the veggie fries and side with the charred gem lettuce drizzled with the loosened mayo. Finish off with a sprinkle of the sliced chives. Looking good, Chef!
