Instructions
1
In a large bowl, combine chicken wings, crushed garlic, and grated ginger. Mix well to ensure chicken is evenly coated.
2
Heat the peanut oil in a wok over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken wings in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the wok. Cook the chicken until browned and crispy on all sides, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove the chicken and set aside.
3
Wipe the wok clean and return it to the heat. In the same wok, add the fish sauce, soy sauce, honey, sweet chili sauce, and chili-garlic sauce. Stir well to combine the sauces and bring to a gentle simmer.
4
Return the browned chicken wings to the wok, stirring to coat them in the sauce mixture. Cover the wok with a lid, reduce the heat to medium-low, and let them cook for an additional 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure the wings are cooking evenly and absorbing the flavors.

Once cooked through, remove from heat. Transfer the wings to a serving bowl and drizzle with any remaining sauce from the wok. Garnish with sliced green onions for a fresh crunch before serving. Enjoy with a side of your favorite salad!
