Ingredients
- 12 whole chicken wings, parts separated, tips removed and discarded
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon dried red chili flakes, plus more for garnish
- 8 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- 2 stalks green onion, thinly sliced for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. Place the wings on the baking sheet, spreading them out evenly and avoiding any overlapping.
- Sprinkle the wings with the salt and pepper.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- In the meantime, place all ingredients into a sauce pan and whisk to combine. Bring to a slight boil. Once the sauce begins to simmer, it will thicken slightly. You can make the sauce as thick as you want by continuing to simmer. I simmered the sauce for 15-20 minutes so that I ended up with a thick and sticky sauce. Use your own personal taste to decide.
- Remove the wings from the oven and place them into a large mixing bowl. Pour the sauce over the wings and toss to coat.
- Place the wings back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes.
- Garnish with green onions and a sprinkling of dried chili flakes. Serve immediately.
