Chicken Suya

Servings

Cut the chicken into drumettes and winglets and pat dry with a kitchen towel and transfer to a bowl.
To the chicken wings, add salt, chicken bouillon powder, suya spice and mix into the wings until it is well mixed. Cover the bowl with cling film and leave to marinade in a cool place for at least 30 minutes (the longer you marinade the chicken, the tastier it becomes, so feel free to marinade for up to 24 hours in the fridge).
Whilst the wings is marinating, to a small bowl, add suya spice and vegetable oil and mix to combine. Preheat the grill or oven at 180C and prepare the baking tray.
Line it with an aluminum foil and place a baking rack on it.
Arrange the chicken wings on the baking rack. Give them enough room so they cook evenly and gets enough air circulation in the oven.
Brush the chicken with the marinade made earlier and grill/broil or bake in the oven for 15 minutes. Take it out of the oven and flip then rub more of the marinade, return into the oven and continue cooking for another 15 minutes.
For a final time, bring it out of the oven, flip and rub the remaining marinade and grill for another 15 minutes. Bring the chicken wings out of the oven and transfer to a bowl, sprinkle more suya spice.
Serve with sliced onions, tomatoes and any other salad of choice. Enjoy!
(Suya spice mix is heavily based on peanuts or kuli kuli which is high in saturated fat. If you are on a healthy diet wagon, use this spice marinade responsibly.)
