This recipe is ideal for a family dinner or a gathering with friends and promises to delight everyone's taste buds.

Necessary ingredients:

For the turkey wings:
- 4 turkey wings
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of pepper
- 1 teaspoon of thyme
- 3 tablespoons of mustard
- 3 tablespoons of ketchup
- 40 ml of red wine
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 4-5 cloves of garlic, crushed
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon of sugar

For the side dish:
- 6 large potatoes
- Salt, to taste
- Half a teaspoon of Delikat (optional)
- Garlic sauce (to taste)
- Olive oil
- Aluminum foil

Preparing the marinade sauce:

1. Mix the ingredients: In a large bowl, add the salt, pepper, thyme, mustard, ketchup, red wine, onion, crushed garlic, lemon juice, and sugar. Use a blender or mixer to obtain a smooth sauce. This sauce will add depth of flavor to the turkey wings.

2. Marinating the wings: Place the turkey wings in a lidded container or a sturdy plastic bag. Pour the marinade sauce over them, ensuring each wing is well coated. Close the container or bag and let marinate in the refrigerator until the next day. Marinating is essential for achieving tender, flavorful meat.

Preparing the potato side dish:

3. Preheat the oven: Before preparing the potatoes, preheat the oven to 180°C (medium heat). This will ensure even cooking of the wings and potatoes.

4. Preparing the potatoes: Peel the potatoes and make cross cuts on their surface to allow the seasonings to penetrate. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and, if desired, a little Delikat for extra flavor. Add a few tablespoons of garlic sauce and olive oil, mixing well to coat them evenly.

5. Wrapping the potatoes: Wrap each potato in aluminum foil, ensuring they are well covered. This will help retain moisture and prevent drying during baking.

Baking:

6. Placing in the tray: In a baking tray, place the marinated turkey wings and pour the remaining sauce over them. Add a cup of water to the tray to maintain moisture during baking. Arrange the wrapped potatoes around the edge of the dish so they bake simultaneously.

7. Baking: Place the tray in the oven and bake for 40 minutes at 180°C. After this time, increase the temperature to 200°C (high heat) and let brown for another 30 minutes, until the wings become golden and crispy.

Serving:

8. Taste and enjoy: Once the dish is ready, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve the turkey wings alongside the browned potatoes, garnished with a drizzle of fresh garlic sauce. You can add a green salad for a contrast of freshness.

Tips and useful advice:

- Marinating: The longer you marinate the wings, the more intense the flavor will be. If you have time, let them marinate for 24 hours.
- Variations: You can experiment with other spices, such as smoked paprika or soy sauce, to add a different note.
- Share the recipe: Offer this delicious and easy-to-make recipe to your friends and family! It’s perfect for a weekend evening or a special occasion.
