Garlic-Ginger Chicken Wings

My mom lives in a small town in western New York, called Clifton Springs. Whenever I go home to visit, I usually indulge in some Buffalo chicken wings from a place called Emerson's. They have two flavors of wings; Buffalo-style, and sweet and sour. I came up with what turned out to be a deliciously sticky, ginger and garlic glaze. I really hope you give these a try.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 10 servings

  • cooking spray

  • 5 pounds chicken wings, separated at joints, tips discarded

  • 3 tablespoons hot sauce (such as Frank's Red Hot)

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

For the glaze:

  • ½ cup rice wine vinegar

  • ½ cup packed brown sugar

  • 3 crushed garlic cloves

  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger

  • 1 tablespoon Asian chili paste

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil; coat with cooking spray.

  2. Season chicken wings with hot sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add vegetable oil; toss to coat.

  3. Place wings and flour in a large, food-safe plastic bag; hold closed tightly and shake until wings entirely coated, no wet spots should remain. Transfer wings to the prepared baking sheets, making sure no wings touch one another. Coat wings with cooking spray.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes; flip wings. Continue baking until wings crispy and no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes more.

  5. Whisk rice wine vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, chili paste, and soy sauce together in a saucepan; bring to a boil, then immediately remove from heat.

  6. Toss 1/2 wings and 1/2 glaze together in a large bowl using tongs until evenly coated; transfer to a serving platter. Let sit about 5 minutes to allow glaze to soak into wings before serving. Repeat with remaining wings and glaze.
