Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 0.5 cup soy sauce
- 0.25 cup honey
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tbsp ginger
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp water
- 2 tsp sesame seeds
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Place a wire rack on top for even cooking.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and season them with salt and black pepper.
Place the wings on a single layer on the wire rack and brush them lightly with olive oil. Bake for 20 minutes.
While the wings are baking, prepare the sticky soy glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil. Stir well.
Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes until it slightly thickens.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Gradually add the slurry to the saucepan, whisking continuously. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce becomes glossy and thick. Remove from heat.
After the initial 20 minutes of baking, remove the wings from the oven and brush them generously with the sticky soy glaze.
Flip the wings and brush the other side with the glaze. Return them to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes.
Remove the wings, brush them with a final coat of glaze, and broil them on high for 2-3 minutes to achieve a caramelized, sticky finish. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Transfer the wings to a serving platter, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve immediately and enjoy!
