Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 210°C (190°C fan/gas mark 6). In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken wings with the soy sauce, honey, lime zest, lime juice, and chili flakes. Toss well until every wing is thoroughly coated, then set aside to marinate while the oven heats.

Prepare the slaw by using a vegetable peeler to shave the carrots into long, thin ribbons. Finely slice the white cabbage and red onion using a sharp knife or a mandoline for a uniform texture.

In a separate bowl, toss the prepared vegetables with olive oil and the additional lime juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then set aside to allow the flavors to meld.

Line a large baking tray with parchment paper. Arrange the marinated wings in a single layer and bake for 35 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning and a sticky glaze.

Just before serving, roughly chop the coriander and fold it through the slaw. Serve the hot, sticky wings alongside the fresh slaw and warm cooked rice.
