Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Chinese Marinade:
1 1/4 cups soy sauce
1 1/4 cups rice wine or sake
1 cup water
12 whole scallions, ends trimmed, smashed with the flat side of a knife
10 cloves garlic, smashed with the flat side of a knife
2 1/2-inch chunk fresh ginger, peeled, then cut into 10 slices about the size of a quarter, each smashed with the flat side of a knife
3 1/2 to 4 pounds chicken wings (about 20), rinsed and drained

Steps:

  • Stir the Chinese Marinade ingredients in a saucepan and heat until boiling. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Let the marinade cool slightly.
  • With a sharp knife separate the drumettes from the wingtips at the joint. Place all the pieces in a bowl or a deep pan and add the still-warm marinade. Stir to coat, cover with plastic wrap, and let the wings marinate for several hours, or overnight if possible, in the refrigerator.
  • Preheat the oven to 500°F. Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and arrange the wings on the cookie sheets. Brush liberally with the marinade. Roast for about 40 minutes, turning once, until the wings are cooked and crispy brown at the edges. Serve hot, at room temperature, or cold as an appetizer or an entr e with a vegetable and steamed rice.

GRANDMOTHER'S CHINESE CHICKEN WINGS

Categories     appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 as an appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 12

16 whole chicken wings, flap segments removed and saved for stock
1/3 cup sake
1/3 cup soy sauce
4 tablespoons brown sugar (see Cook's Note)
3 tablespoons mirin
3 tablespoons oyster sauce
4 large thin slices fresh ginger
2 cloves star anise
1 dried hot chile
1 cinnamon stick
Shaved green onions, for garnish
Sesame seeds, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place a 14-inch nonstick saute pan over high heat. Add the chicken and dry-sear to lightly brown the chicken. Add the sake, soy sauce, 1/3 cup water, brown sugar, mirin, oyster sauce, ginger, star anise, dried chile and cinnamon stick and bring to a simmer. Cook, covered, about 12 minutes.
  • Uncover and simmer until the pan is almost dry, tossing frequently to coat the wings, 10 to 12 minutes. Skim off the fat if you like, and serve, garnishing with scallion shavings and sesame seeds. I like to emulsify the chicken fat into the sauce by turning up the heat at the last minute to boil the fat into the other liquids.

CHINESE CHICKEN WINGS



Chinese Chicken Wings image

Really good, simple recipe! Really yummy wings. I never have any leftovers. Marinating time is added in prep time.

Provided by ciao4293

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 9h

Yield 6-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 lbs chicken wings
3/4 cup soy sauce
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup oil
1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients.
  • Add wings and marinate overnight.
  • (I have often marinated in fridge for 1 to 2 days) Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of cooking methods. Frying, baking, and grilling are all great ways to cook chicken wings. Experiment with different methods to find your favorite.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When frying or baking chicken wings, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they can cook evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer. The best way to ensure that your chicken wings are cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the wing and cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken wings rest. After cooking, let the chicken wings rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help them to retain their juices and flavor.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce. Chicken wings are traditionally served with a dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or honey mustard. You can also try other sauces, such as barbecue sauce, sweet and sour sauce, or teriyaki sauce.

Conclusion:

Chicken wings are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With so many different ways to cook and flavor them, there's sure to be a recipe that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give chicken wings a try!
