Ethiopian-Style Soy-Spiced Chicken Wings

Ethiopian-Style Soy-Spiced Chicken Wings balance deep, salty soy with warming notes of cinnamon, clove, and ginger for a richly aromatic bite. The wings turn tender from simmering, then bake to a crisp finish with a glossy, savory-sweet glaze. Serve them as a standout appetizer for game day, casual gatherings, or a flavorful dinner spread.

Ethiopian-Style Soy-Spiced Chicken Wings
  1. 1

    Put the chicken wings and the onion in a soup pot and add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then cook for 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). While the wings cook, mix the soy sauce, cinnamon, cloves, and ginger in a saucepan and warm over medium heat.

  3. 3

    When the chicken is done, drain the water (you may reserve it for broth), then pour in the soy sauce mixture and stir to coat all the wings. Arrange the wings in a single layer on a cookie sheet.

  4. 4

    Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the outsides are crispy. Baste with sauce as desired while cooking.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe

easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.

The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.

Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.

Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
