Chicken Wings in Asian Zing Sauce

Chicken Wings in Asian Zing Sauce

Chicken wings are a popular food item made from the wings of chickens. They are often deep-fried, grilled, baked or grilled and are typically seasoned or coated in a sauce. Chicken wings are often served as an appetizer or snack and are enjoyed by many people around the world. 

Ingredients

For the chicken wings

2 lbs chicken wings

Sea salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Optional: sesame seeds, chopped green onions for garnish

For the Asian zing sauce

1/2 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup honey

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon sriracha sauce (adjust to taste for spiciness)

1 tablespoon cornstarch

2 tablespoons water

 

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.

Place the seasoned chicken wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and drizzle with vegetable oil. Toss the wings to coat evenly.

Bake the chicken wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy, flipping them halfway through the cooking time.

While the chicken wings are baking, prepare the Asian zing sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and sriracha sauce. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it comes to a simmer.

In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Slowly pour the slurry into the simmering sauce while continuously stirring. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency. Remove the sauce from the heat.

Once the chicken wings are done, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the Asian zing sauce over the wings and toss them to coat evenly. Enjoy!
