Sticky Ginger Chicken Wings
Description
This recipe starts by coating chicken wings in neutral cooking oil and baking them to develop crisp skin. While baking, a sauce is prepared from honey, soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and freshly grated ginger, blending sweet, salty, spicy, and tangy notes. After initial roasting, the wings are tossed in the sauce then returned to the oven to bake further, allowing the sauce to reduce and thicken into a sticky glaze that adheres to the wings.
Regular stirring every 15 minutes during the final bake helps coat the wings evenly and achieves a deep amber color. Freshly sliced green onions add a mild onion brightness and garnish. The wings emerge tender inside, with a sticky, flavorful, slightly spicy exterior suitable for appetizers or main dishes.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs. chicken wings 6.58, or drummettes
- 1 Tbsp neutral cooking oil $0.04, generic cooking oil
- 1/4 cup honey $0.66
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce $0.12
- 1 Tbsp Chili garlic sauce $0.13
- 1 Tbsp sesame oil $0.24, toasted
- 1 Tbsp rice vinegar $0.13
- 2 cloves garlic $0.16, minced
- 1 Tbsp ginger $0.30, grated fresh
- 2 green onion $0.20, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Place the chicken wings in a glass or ceramic baking dish so that they're in a single layer. Drizzle the cooking oil over top, then toss the wings to coat in the oil. Transfer the wings to the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
- While the wings are baking, prepare the sticky ginger sauce. Combine the honey, soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a bowl.
- After the wings have baked for 15 minutes, pour the sauce over the wings, then toss to coat. Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced into a sticky glaze and deepened in color. Baking time may vary slightly, so keep an eye on the sauce toward the end of the baking time.
- Top with sliced green onions and serve!
