Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs chicken wings
• 0.25 cup soy sauce
• 0.25 cup honey
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp ginger, minced
• 2 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 1 tbsp water
• 2 scallions, chopped (for garnish)
• 1 tsp sesame seeds (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top. Lightly grease the rack with cooking spray.

Step 2

Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and place them on the wire rack. Season with a pinch of salt if desired.

Step 3

Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 4

While the wings are baking, prepare the sticky sauce. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, minced garlic, minced ginger, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Stir occasionally until the sauce begins to simmer.

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to form a slurry. Slowly whisk this mixture into the simmering sauce. Continue to cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.

Step 6

Remove the sauce from the heat and set it aside.

Step 7

Once the wings are done cooking, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the sticky sauce over the wings and toss them until they are evenly coated.

Step 8

Return the coated wings to the wire rack and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, allowing the sauce to caramelize slightly.

Step 9

Remove the wings from the oven and let them cool slightly. Transfer them to a serving platter and garnish with chopped scallions and sesame seeds.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious sticky chicken wings!
