Method

Mark the pickled cucumber: mix the vinegar, sugar and ¼ tsp salt in a small mixing bowl, then set aside for 3 mins to dissolve. Add the cucumber and mix well, then set aside for at least 30 mins.
Meanwhile, mix the sriracha, garlic, ginger, lemon juice, sesame oil, soy sauce and sugar in a bowl. Add the wings and turn to coat well.
Prepare the barbecue and wait until the flames have died down and the coals are white. Cook the wings for 25-30 mins, turning regularly and brushing with any excess marinade left in the bowl. Alternatively, preheat the grill to high. Line a large baking tray with foil, then lay the wings across it, pouring over any excess marinade. Grill for 10-12 mins each side, until slightly charred and cooked through.
Transfer the wings to a serving plate and scatter with the sesame seeds and spring onions. Drain the pickled cucumber and serve alongside with extra sriracha, if you like.

Tip: Prepare the chicken wings the day before and marinate in the fridge overnight. The pickled cucumber can be made up to a day in advance: cover and chill, then drain before serving.
