Ingredients
- 1¾ pounds chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 recipe Five Spice Powder (see page TK) nonstick cooking spray
Five Spice Powder (Makes about 3 tablespoons):
- 1 star anise pod
- 2 teaspoons Szechuan peppercorns (may use black peppercorns)
- ½ teaspoon fennel seed
- ½ teaspoon whole cloves
- 1 one-inch piece cinnamon stick
Preparation
- Place the wings in a one gallon re-sealable plastic bag. Add the oil and be sure that the wings are evenly coated. Add the five spice powder and seal the bag.
- Gently shake the bag to be sure that the spice powder is fully covering the wings. Refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours.
- Coat the provided basket with nonstick cooking spray. Place the seasoned wings in the prepared basket; assemble as instructed (page TK) and place on the roasting spit assembly fitted in the drip tray.
- Place in the Cuisinart® Vertical Rotisserie and set the temperature to 350°F. Set the timer to 40 minutes.
- Carefully remove the wings; serve immediately.
Five Spice Powder: This traditional Chinese seasoning blend has a unique flavor – use sparingly though, as a little does go a long way. Combine all ingredients in the bowl of the Cuisinart® Spice & Nut Grinder. Pulse spices 2 to 3 times and then process until completely ground, about 40 to 50 seconds. Use immediately or contain in a sealed glass jar. Store in a dry, cool place.
