Essential Ingredients for Asian Chicken Wings
To embark on this sticky wings adventure, you’ll need:
- Chicken Wings: The centerpiece of the dish. Start with fresh, high-quality chicken wings for the best flavor and texture.
- Baking Powder: A secret ingredient for crispy skin. A light dusting before baking helps to dry out the skin and achieve that coveted crunch.
- Oyster Sauce & Soy Sauce: These provide the umami backbone of the marinade, infusing the wings with deep, savory flavors.
- Brown Sugar & Honey: Adding a touch of sweetness, these ingredients balance the saltiness of the soy sauce and the heat of the chili sauce.
- Dijon Mustard: Brings a tangy depth to the marinade, enhancing the overall complexity of flavors.
- Chili Garlic Sauce: Adds a spicy kick to the wings, giving them a fiery note that’s irresistible.
- Sesame Seeds: Optional for garnish, they add a nice texture and a nutty flavor to the finished wings.
How to Make Asian Chicken Wings
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet with foil and a wire rack.
- Prepare Wings: Pat chicken wings dry, season with salt, and toss with a light coating of baking powder.
- Marinate: Mix oyster sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, honey, and chili garlic sauce. Marinate wings for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for deeper flavor.
- Arrange for Baking: Place wings on the wire rack, ensuring they’re not touching for even cooking.
- Bake: Cook for 45-50 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and crispy.
- Serve: Let cool slightly and serve with blue cheese dip or ranch, perfect for any gathering.
