Easy Steamed Chicken Wings (Chinese Style)
Report
For a simple yet satisfying dinner, this Chinese-inspired Steamed Chicken Wings is my go-to when I crave a light and nourishing meal. Just marinate the chicken wings for an hour and then steam them for a quick 15 minutes.

Ingredients
- 1.2 pound chicken wings (550g)
- 1 prig green onion
- 1 thumb-sized piece ginger
- 1½ tbsp light soy sauce (to your taste)
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce (to your taste)
- ½ tbsp sugar (to your taste)
- 1 tbsp Chinese cooking wine (or sake, sherry cooking wine)
- ½ tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (or tapioca starch, potato starch)
- 4 piece shiitake (optional)
- 1 tbsp goji berry (optional)
Instructions
Marinate the chicken
- Separate the chicken wings, using only the drumette and wingette; save the tips for making chicken broth or phở gà (chicken pho).
- Use a knife or fork to prick the chicken; this helps the marinade penetrate better.
- Slice the ginger into thin strips and finely chop the white part of the scallions; for the green part, cut into 2-inch (5cm) pieces.
- If using dehydrated shiitake mushrooms, soak them in water for 3-4 hours, squeeze them, and then cut them into slices.
- Combine the chicken with all the seasonings, scallions, ginger, and cornstarch. Then add shiitake mushrooms and goji berries; mix well. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
Steam the chicken
- Let the chicken come to room temperature for 20-30 minutes before steaming.
- Put the chicken and all the marinade in a deep plate. Steam over medium-high heat for 15 minutes. Add the green part of the scallions and steam for an additional 3 minutes.
- Serve the hot steamed chicken wings with steamed rice.
