Tamarind Wings

Directions

1. 1
   Heat oven to 375°
2. 2
   Rinse chicken wings, removing any pin feathers; pat dry, Arrange in a shallow roasting pan.
3. 3
   Sprinkle lightly with salt
4. 4
   In a bowl, blend tamarind paste, juice, and spices. Stir with a fork or whisk to combine.
5. 5
   Place wings in a roasting pan or baking pan, skin-side up, and pour marinade over to coat. You can marinate, refrigerated, for an hour or two, or put them right in the oven.
6. 6
   Roast uncovered in oven until done, about 25-35 minutes (to avoid burning, you can carefully pour a small amount of water around, not over, the wings to a depth of ~1/2 inch. I usually put them a little more closely packed in a Corningware-type oval baker, in which case they likely won't need the water). Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
