Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Chicken wings
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 2 tsp Baking powder
- 0.33 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
- 1 tsp Fresh ginger, grated
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp Sesame seeds
- 2 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Lightly grease the rack with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the chicken wings with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and baking powder. Ensure the wings are evenly coated.
Arrange the chicken wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack. Bake for 20 minutes, then flip the wings and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the wings are crispy and golden brown.
While the wings are baking, prepare the sesame glaze. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Add the slurry to the saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
Once the chicken wings are done baking, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the sesame glaze over the wings and toss to coat evenly.
Transfer the glazed wings to a serving platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and garnish with sliced green onions.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Super Sesame Chicken Wings!
