Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Chicken wings
- 0.5 cup Cornstarch
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Ground black pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 3 cups Vegetable oil
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 0.25 cup Hoisin sauce
- 3 tbsp Honey
- 2 tbsp Rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp Sriracha
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 1 tsp Fresh ginger, minced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds
- 2 tbsp Green onions, thinly sliced
Instructions
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and place them in a large bowl.
Season the wings with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, then toss to coat evenly.
Sprinkle the cornstarch over the wings and toss again until they are lightly coated on all sides.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep skillet or frying pan to 350°F (175°C).
Fry the chicken wings in batches for about 8-10 minutes per batch, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove the fried wings and place them on a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and sriracha. Stir until smooth.
Add sesame oil, minced ginger, and minced garlic to the saucepan. Simmer the sauce for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly.
Place the fried chicken wings in a large mixing bowl and pour the sauce over them. Toss the wings until they are thoroughly coated in the sauce.
Transfer the coated wings to a serving platter. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Oriental Hot Wings!
