Spicy Ginger Chicken Wings

This dish is easy made and ready in just 20 minutes ...while you have a shower... or while you paint your toenails...

Simple marinate chicken wings with: ginger (a lot of!), chili, soy sauce, a bit of lime zest and something sweet- I used coconut-flower syrup which does NOT influence you blood sugar but his is totally up to your taste. You can as well use honey, maple syrup, cane sugar or agave syrup - just (please) do not use white sugar. I find coconut-flower syrup perfect for this dish. It#s not too sweet and it gives a little extra special taste.

The wings should marinate a while... the longer the better. The simply put them on a baking paper (make sure you pour enough marinade over them) an in the oven at 200 C until the are ready, golden brown and crispy.

Serve with any kind of salad - I chose a asian-.style mango and cucumber salad with mungo-bean noodles and cilantro

 

Ginger has a long tradition of being very effective in alleviating symptoms of gastrointestinal distress. In herbal medicine, ginger is regarded as an excellent carminative (a substance which promotes the elimination of intestinal gas) and intestinal spasmolytic (a substance which relaxes and soothes the intestinal tract). Modern scientific research has revealed that ginger possesses numerous therapeutic properties including antioxidant effects, an ability to inhibit the formation of inflammatory compounds, and direct anti-inflammatory effects.

Who doesn't love the spicy and savoury vietnamese kitchen? It's not only deliciously tasty, it's healthy and really easy and quick to prepare! One or more ingredients not at home? Simply replace them by others according to your taste. (When using prawn, do make sure they are high quality and absolutely fresh - if you can't get fresh ones make sure they have a MSC label.)

MANGOS are not only tasty, but also a good source of dietary fiber and vitamin B6, and a very good source of vitamin A and vitamin C. Please keep in mind: a large portion of the calories in this food come from sugars. You don't like mangos but still want it fruity? What about some pomelo instead?

SOYBEAN SPROUTS - you don't like meat or seafood? Stick with the sprouts - the contains loads of protein, vitamin C, thiamin, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium, and are a very good source of vitamin K, folate, copper and manganese.

CILANTRO (Coriander leaves) - either you hate it or you love it, not much inbetween :) - in first case USE PLENTY of, they will not only give your dish that typical southeast-asian taste, but are also a good source of thiamin and zinc, and a very good source of dietary fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E (alpha tocopherol), vitamin K, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, folate, pantothenic acid, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, copper and manganese - did you guess??
