SOY-BRAISED CHICKEN WINGS
Dark soy sauce along with regular soy sauce is what gives these wings their rich color. We like to use all flats but a mix with drumettes or whole wings works too.

Steps:
- Mix half of ginger, ¼ cup dark soy sauce, and 1 tsp. Five-Spice Powder in a medium bowl. Add wings; toss to coat. Cover and chill at least 1 hour and up to 8 hours.
- Heat oil in a wok or large deep-sided skillet over medium-high. Add shallot, scallions, garlic, chile, and remaining ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add rock sugar, star anise, licorice root (if using), cassia, white pepper (if using), Sichuan peppercorns, and remaining 1 tsp. Five-Spice Powder and stir to combine. Pour in low-sodium soy sauce, remaining ¼ cup dark soy sauce, and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low.
- Lift chicken wings out of marinade; discard marinade. Add wings to wok and pour wine over. Stir gently, then bring to a simmer. Cover and cook over medium-low 15 minutes. Gently stir, then cover again and continue cooking until chicken is cooked through and a deep brown color, about 15 minutes longer. Using a spider or slotted spoon, transfer wings to a plate.
- Pour liquid in wok through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl; discard solids. Return strained liquid to wok and bring to a simmer over medium-high. Cook until sauce thickly coats a spoon, 10-12 minutes. Return chicken wings to sauce and toss to coat. Using a spider or slotted spoon, transfer to a platter. Serve with cucumbers if using.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken wings: Look for wings that are plump and have a good amount of meat on them. Avoid wings that are bruised or have any signs of damage.
- Make sure to trim the chicken wings properly: Remove the tips of the wings, as well as any excess fat or skin. This will help the wings cook evenly and prevent them from becoming greasy.
- Marinate the chicken wings for at least 30 minutes: This will help the wings to absorb the flavors of the marinade and make them more tender. You can use a variety of marinades, such as soy sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger.
- Cook the chicken wings over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from burning or drying out. Cook the wings for about 10-12 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through.
- Serve the chicken wings with your favorite dipping sauce: Some popular dipping sauces include ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, and barbecue sauce.
Conclusion:
Soy braised chicken wings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or casual gatherings. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your soy braised chicken wings are cooked to perfection and full of flavor.
