In a large bowl, combine milk, coconut extract, and chicken wings.
Stir to mix well.
Marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
In another bowl, combine instant mashed potatoes, curry powder, and sweetened flaked coconut.
Remove the wings from the marinade and roll them in the potato mixture.
Place them slightly apart on well-greased cookie sheets.
Combine melted butter and minced garlic.
Drizzle the mixture over the wings.
Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees Fahrenheit until browned, approximately 45 minutes.
Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
Marinating overnight enhances the flavor absorption into the chicken wings.
Wine Pairing:
Pair these Coconut Curried Chicken Wings with a slightly sweet and aromatic white wine, such as a Gewürztraminer or a Riesling. The wine's sweetness will complement the coconut and curry flavors, creating a harmonious balance.
