1 Preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan-forced). Line two large oven trays with baking paper. 2 Combine the flour with the dry ingredients in a large bowl. 3 Separate the wings at the joints by cutting through with a sharp knife. Discard the tips or keep for making stock. Working with a few at a time, toss the chicken wings into the spiced flour mixture. Place on a tray; spray wings with oil spray. Toss wings in flour again; place on prepared oven tray. Repeat with remaining wings. Give the wings on trays one more spray; bake for about 35 minutes or until golden brown, crisp and cooked through. 4 Meanwhile, combine the sauces and vinegar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to the boil; boil for 2 minutes. 5 Place cooked wings on a serving platter; drizzle with some of the sauce. Top with onion and chilli; serve with remaining sauce.
