Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1.5kg Chicken Wings
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1 1/4 cup water (divided)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp cornflour

Method

  1. Preheat oven 200C. Line a baking tray with baking paper and place a wire baking rack inside. Set aside.
  2. Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels, then place the wings in a large bowl.
  3. Sprinkle the baking powder, salt and pepper onto the chicken and toss to coat.
  4. Arrange the wings on the prepared baking rack and space them apart so they don't touch.
  5. Bake the wings in the oven for 40 - 45 minutes. Wings should be light golden brown.
  6. While the chicken is cooking, place a saucepan over medium heat and add 1 cup of water, the soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, ground ginger and garlic powder. Bring to the boil, whisking frequently.
  7. While the mixture is coming to the boil, in a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/4 cup water with the cornflour to create a paste.
  8. Pour the paste into the saucepan, then bring back to the boil, whisking frequently. Once boiling, cook for 1-2 minutes. Sauce is ready when it easily coats the back of a metal spoon.
  9. Remove the sauce from the heat and allow to cool for slightly, for about 10 minutes.
  10. Once the wings are baked, place them in a large bowl and pour over the prepared sauce. Using tongs, toss the chicken wings to coat in the sauce.
  11. Serve on a large platter and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
