Ingredients
Scale
- For the Chicken
- 12 single wings (approximately 1 1/4 lb. / 567g)
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. black pepper
- 1 Tbs. backing powder
- For the Sauce
- 1Tbs. sesame oil
- 2 to 3 cloves garlic, smashed
- 3 thinly sliced ginger root
- 1 tsp. Thai chili flakes
- 1 tsp. soy sauce
- 1 Tbs. rice vinegar
- 1 Tbs. mirin
- 1 Tbs. Sriracha
- 2 Tbs. honey
For the Garnish
- 1 green onion
- cilantro
- sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven 425 degrees.
In a mixing bowl, toss chicken wings with salt, pepper and baking powder evenly. Place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake 20 minutes. Make sure wings are at least 1/2-inch apart so they have room to cook evenly and get crispy. Flip the wings over and bake additional 20 minutes or until wings are fully cooked and golden brown.
- Meanwhile, let’s make Asian Zing sauce!
In a cold wok, add sesame oil, crushed garlic, ginger and Thai chili flakes. Now turn on heat to low and let it infuse flavors to oil, about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine rest of ingredients for Asian Zing sauce in a mixing bowl. Also it’s perfect timing to chop your green onion and cilantro for garnish later on.
- Pour sauce mixture into wok, and increase heat to high. Bring sauce to a boil and keep stirring until sauce texture is syrupy and thick, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- By the time, your chicken wings are done cooking, remove from oven and transfer to wok. Heat the wok over high heat, and toss chicken wings evenly with sauce.
- Transfer Asian Zing Wings to a serving place, garnish with chopped green onion, cilantro and sesame seeds. Enjoy!
