I’m always looking for a new way to enjoy chicken, and I found a chicken wing recipe that sounded pretty good…but it needed a few special tweaks to make it my own.
Sweet, a bit spicy, and incredibly delicious, you can’t stop eating these wings once you get started!
My next project will be to cut up a whole chicken and use this amazing glaze on an entire bird!
3 lbs. chicken wings
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup unseasoned rice vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon Chinese chili garlic sauce
salt and pepper
chopped scallions
white sesame seeds
chopped cilantro (optional)
To make the glaze, combine the ketchup, rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and chili garlic sauce in a sauce pan. Simmer it over medium heat, reducing the sauce by half. Set it aside.
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
Season the chicken wings with oil, salt and pepper. Spread them out on a sheet pan lined with non-stick foil and bake them until done, about 30 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the sheet pan and place them in a large bowl. Raise the oven temperature to 400. Pour off any fat or liquid from the sheet pan and discard it.
Add the glaze to the bowl with the chicken and toss the wings in it until they are really nicely coated. Then return the wings to the sheet pan.
Bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, until you just start seeing a little char on the edges of the wings.
Plate the wings and top them with the scallions, sesame seeds, and cilantro.
