Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Chicken wings
- 2 tablespoons Fresh ginger
- 4 Garlic cloves
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 Green onions (for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Clean and pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Peel the ginger and garlic, then finely grate both. Add the grated ginger and garlic to the bowl with the wings.
Pour in the soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil. Sprinkle in the ground pepper and salt. Mix everything together until the wings are evenly coated.
Cover the bowl and let the wings marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight for deeper flavor.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper, and place a wire rack on top.
Arrange the marinated chicken wings on the wire rack in a single layer. Reserve any leftover marinade.
Bake the wings for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, brush them with the reserved marinade, and flip them over.
Return the wings to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
Optional: For extra crispiness, broil the wings for 2-3 minutes at the end of the cooking time, keeping a close eye on them to prevent burning.
Transfer the cooked wings to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
