How to make Barbecue Chicken Wings

1. Prepare the barbecue sauce ahead of time: Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring, to heat through and to blend the flavours, 10 to 12 minutes. Do not boil. Strain to remove the garlic. Cool to room temperature. (Makes 725ml .) Use immediately or refrigerate, covered, for up to 2 weeks.

2. Preheat the oven to 350ºF.

3. Using a sharp knife, separate the chicken wings at the joint. Set aside.

4. Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl and toss well with 350ml the sauce. Lay the pieces in a single layer on 2 or 3 baking sheets (do not overcrowd them). Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, basting once or twice with additional sauce. Serve the wings on a platter and sprinkle with the spring onions.
