Oven-Fried Turkey Wings

Cornmeal-crunchy turkey wings are fun to pick up and eat with your fingers -- and they're easy to "fry" in the oven.

Type: Poultry, Turkey
Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

6   Turkey wings - - (about 5 lbs total)
1 1/4 cups 78g / 2.8ozYellow cornmeal
2 tablespoons 30mlPaprika
1 tablespoon 15mlDry marjoram leaves
1 teaspoon 5mlPepper
1 teaspoon 5mlEgg (large)
2 tablespoons 30mlWater
5 tablespoons 75mlButter or margarine - melted
  Salt

Recipe Instructions

With your hands, force joints of each turkey wing open until they snap; then cut wings apart at joints. Discard wingtips. Rinse remaining wing pieces and pat dry.

In a wide, shallow rimmed plate, mix cornmeal, paprika, marjoram, and pepper. In a shallow pan, beat egg and water to blend.

Dip wing pieces in egg mixture to coat; then dip in cornmeal mixture to coat well (pat coating on lightly for an extra-thick crust). Arrange pieces, slightly apart, in a single layer in an oiled shallow 10- by 15-inch baking pan.

Bake, uncovered, in a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes; drizzle evenly with butter. Continue to bake, uncovered, until meat near bone in thickest part of wings is no longer pink; cut to test (about 25 more minutes). Season to taste with salt. This recipe serves 6.
