Ingredients
chicken wings
2 lbs (Cut into three sections.)
peanut oil
2 tablespoons (For frying.)
dark soy sauce
1/3 cup (To give a rich flavor.)
honey
1 tablespoon (For sweetness.)
Chinese wine or dry sherry
2 tablespoons (Add depth of flavor.)
garlic clove
1 (Crushed for maximum flavor.)
fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon (Finely grated.)
Instructions
1
Start by cutting the chicken wings into three sections: the drumette, flat, and tip (discard the tips or reserve them for making stock).
2
In a large wok or skillet, heat the peanut oil over high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken wings and fry for about 3-4 minutes, or until they are nicely browned on all sides.
3
In a bowl, combine the dark soy sauce, honey, Chinese wine (or dry sherry), crushed garlic, and finely grated fresh ginger. Stir until well mixed.
4
Pour the sauce mixture over the browned chicken wings in the wok. Stir well to coat the wings evenly in the sauce.
5
Reduce the heat to low and cover the wok with a lid. Allow the wings to simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure the wings are cooking evenly.
6
As the cooking time nears its end, keep a close eye on the wings. Stir frequently to ensure that the glaze does not burn. If necessary, uncover for the final few minutes to allow some of the sauce to thicken.
7
Once the wings are tender and the sauce has thickened to a glaze-like consistency, remove from heat and let them cool slightly.
8
Serve the wings warm or at room temperature, garnished with sliced green onions or sesame seeds if desired.
