Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken wings (flats/drumettes) (separated into flats and drumettes)
- ¼ tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt
- ⅛ tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 rib celery
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 bay leaf
For the Seasonings
- ½ cup sake (you can substitute dry sherry or Chinese rice wine)
- ⅓ cup water
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup orange marmalade (I love Bonne Maman brand; please adjust to your taste)
To Garnish
- ½ tsp toasted white sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients.
- Cut 1 rib celery into 2-inch (5-cm) pieces. Then, smash them with the flat side of the knife.
- Smash 2 cloves garlic with the flat side of the knife and discard the peel.
- In a Dutch oven or a large pot, heat 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil on medium-high heat. Season 1 lb chicken wings (flats/drumettes) with ¼ tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt and ⅛ tsp freshly ground black pepper.
- Sear the chicken wings until golden brown.
- Add ½ cup sake and ⅓ cup water.
- Add ¼ cup orange marmalade and ¼ cup soy sauce.
- Add the smashed celery, the smashed garlic cloves, and 1 bay leaf.
- Place an otoshibuta (drop lid) on top of the chicken, but do not cover with the Dutch oven lid. Simmer over medium-low heat for 15 minutes.
- During this time, turn the chicken wings once in a while.
- After 15 minutes of simmering, remove the otoshibuta. Continue turning the chicken to coat with the sauce and cook until the sauce is almost gone.
- When there is about 2 Tbsp of sauce left and you can see the bottom of the pot, turn off the heat. Transfer the chicken onto a plate, and pour the sauce on top. Sprinkle with ½ tsp toasted white sesame seeds and serve immediately.
