Steps

  1. 1
    Pat the wings completely dry with kitchen paper — wet skin steams instead of crisping.
  2. 2
    In a large bowl mix the oil, garlic, paprika, savory, honey, lemon juice, pepper and salt, add the wings and toss until evenly coated. Leave for 30 minutes, or up to a day in the fridge.
  3. 3
    Heat the oven to 210°C and set a wire rack over a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  4. 4
    Arrange the wings on the rack in a single layer, skin side up, with space between them so the hot air reaches every side.
  5. 5
    Bake for 25 minutes, then turn the wings and bake for another 15 minutes.
  6. 6
    Turn them skin side up again and bake for a final 5–10 minutes, until deep golden and crisp — the honey browns fast at the end, so check after 5 minutes.
  7. 7
    Rest for 3 minutes and serve hot.
