1
Wash and dry the drumettes, arrange in a single layer on a large platter and allow to rest uncovered for at least 8 hours, preferably overnight.
2
Preheat oven to 450ºF.
3
Lightly season chicken with canola oil, salt and black pepper. Using a pairing knife, make two slits in the meatiest part of each drumette, which will help it to better absorb the sauce. Spread drumettes evenly in a baking dish.
4
Bake uncovered for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 400ºF and bake for another 20- 25 minutes, until skin looks crispy.
5
In a small saucepan, combine hoisin sauce, cumin, coriander, cayenne, ginger, garlic and honey. Heat over medium-low until warm.
6
Remove drumettes from oven and drain excess fat from the baking dish, leaving about a tablespoon or so reserved in the bottom of the pan. Drizzle wings with half of the sauce mixture, tossing until drumettes are well coated. Return to oven and cook for another 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer drumettes to a serving platter, add a little more of the sauce mixture to chicken and garnish with diced scallions.
