Sweet and Spicy Ginger Chicken Wings
Ingredients List
-
3 pounds chicken wings
-
2 eggs, beaten
-
1 cup all-purpose flour
-
1 cup margarine
-
½ cup apple cider vinegar
-
3 tablespoons soy sauce
-
3 tablespoons water
-
1 cup brown sugar
-
1 teaspoon monosodium glutamate (MSG) (Optional)
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
3 serrano chile peppers, minced (Optional)
-
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
-
2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel.
-
In one bowl, beat the eggs. In another, place the flour. Dip each wing in the egg, then coat lightly with flour, shaking off the excess.
-
Heat margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
-
Pan-fry the wings, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, about 10 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, in a saucepan, bring cider vinegar, soy sauce, water, brown sugar, MSG, salt, serrano chilies, and ginger to a gentle boil over medium heat, allowing it to thicken for 5-7 minutes.
-
Toss the browned wings in the sauce until evenly coated, then transfer to a large baking dish with a slotted spoon. Reserve the remaining sauce.
-
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, turning them halfway through and basting with the reserved sauce after 15 minutes.
-
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the wings just before serving.
