Cooking with Microwave Oven - Roast Chicken Wings with Ginger Wine Recipe

This is my second adventure in cooking with microwave oven. During the first round, I found that microwave oven saves me some cooking time and also be able to make the chicken skin crispy. For my this second experiment, I tried out some chicken wings and zapped it with the microwave oven for around 20 minutes as I do not want the meat to be too dry.
The wings turned out really nice and the skin is crispy too but you will have to eat it while still hot or else the skin would hardened when cold.

Here is my Roast chicken with ginger wine recipe

Ingredients
Chicken wings, 10 pcs
Ginger wine, 1 tablespoon (you can substitute this with ginger juice)
Light soya sauce, 2 tablespoons
Dark soya sauce, 1/2 teaspoon
Mak Ngah Tong (Maltose), 2 tablespoon
Plum sauce, 1 tablespoon
Five spice powder, 1/2 teaspoon
Pepper, to taste
Salt to taste

Marinade the chicken wings for around 2 hours of more. Roast marinated chicken wing in microwave oven under high heat for around 20 minutes. As per Wendy's advice in my previous post, you can use the grill or convection function in you microwave oven (if it comes with these functions) so that the meat would not become dry. Serve the roast chicken wings while still hot.

  3. I know some people never use the microwave as they believe it's harmful, but I always warm food in it. It's so convenient.

  11. Pete,

    Forgive me if I'm wrong. But I find that food doesn't taste nice when cook in a microwave. I tried it before. But then, was it because of the ingredients i put?
