Lemon Honey Chicken Wings

I believe, this dish will certainly be a favorite. The combination of the sour taste of lemon, and sweet-savory of honey and garlic, will make everyone not enough just to eat one or two pieces only. More delicious again served with chilly sauce or tomato sauce..hmmm..just Yummy!

Ingredients and how to make it:
- 12 pieces of chicken wings.
Mix all marinade ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons pure honey
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 cloves of garlic. Bruised and finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste

Marinate the chicken wings with spices. The longer the better (I soak about 2 hours). Then Roast in oven 170 deg C for 40 minutes or until cooked. Or if you can make a grill / BBQ , this can be also be roasted over coals ....
Serve hot (warm)

Bon apetite!
