Add all the ingredients for the sticky chicken wings (except the chicken) to a small saucepan and simmer for five minutes. Allow the sauce to cool, then add a quarter of the sauce to the chicken wings and toss to coat evenly. Allow the wings to marinate for 20 minutes. Line a baking tray with baking paper and spread out the wings on the tray. Spoon all the remaining sauce over the chicken wings, ensuring they’re completely covered. Bake in a pre-heated 200 degrees Celsius oven for 25-35 minutes until cooked through. 

To make the summery Asian-inspired slaw, plate up all the veggies. Whisk together the dressing ingredients and pour over the veggies.
