My family loves chicken wings so I’m always experimenting with new flavours. These Thai-inspired Tom Yum chicken wings is the latest creation and they were very well-received on our dinner table. The marinade is really easy to make as I am using instant tom yum paste as the base. They are also cooked the fuss-free way, entirely in the oven. You can tweak the marinade sauce to your liking – for example, even though there is no chilli in this recipe, you can add it for that extra heat.

Ingredients
(Serves 2)

- 5 chicken wings (about 400 grams)

(A) Tom Yum marinade
- 1/2 stalk lemongrass (only the white part), finely snipped
- 1 kaffir lime leaf, finely snipped
- 5 shallots, peeled and sliced
- 1 heaped tbsp instant tom yum paste
- 1/2 tsp fish sauce
- 1 tsp cooking oil

Cutting Chicken Wings
1. Using kitchen scissors, cut chicken wing to 3 portions at the joint (drummette, mid joint and end tip). Freeze the end tips for making chicken stock. Pat dry with paper towels. Tip: For easy cleaning and quick drying, opt for the detachable kitchen scissors.

Just discovered this website a couple of weeks back and I have already tried 4 recipes (aglio olio, scrambled eggs, ABC soup and beef stew) This website is re-igniting my love for cooking. Definitely going to try and make the Tom yum chix wings. Keep up the great work!

The marinade sounds delicious. And, I love that they’re cooked in the oven. So much less mess that stovetop cooking!

Wiffy, these wings looks so yummy! Can you share the purpose of chilling the wings? Michelle

Hi Michelle, the reason is that some people may like to marinade longer, even overnight, hence recommended to put in fridge in case of spoilage.

Besides chicken wing, what other meat can we use?

You can use chicken leg/thigh but the cooking time will be slightly longer as the pieces will be bigger.
