Being cooked for so long means that the chicken will fall straight off the bone and every mouthful will deliver and explosion fresh Asian herbs and spices. We dare you to try eating this without using your fingers!

Ingredients

Skinless chicken wing, raw

700 g, (Buy 800g drumettes), skin removed, fat trimmed

Hoisin sauce

cup(s), (80ml)
