Ingredients
Chicken Wings
- 1 kg chicken wings
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Sauce
- 2 tbsp gochujang
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ginger, grated
- 1 tsp sesame oil
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for crispy wings.
- Prepare Wings: Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, then toss them in vegetable oil, salt, and pepper to season and promote browning.
- Arrange for Baking: Place the wings in a single layer on a baking tray to allow even cooking and crisping on all sides.
- Bake Wings: Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes. Turn them halfway through cooking to ensure they become crispy and golden on every side.
- Make Sauce: While the wings bake, combine gochujang, soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil in a saucepan. Heat gently until the sauce thickens slightly and flavors meld.
- Coat Wings: Once the wings are cooked and crispy, toss them thoroughly in the warm gochujang sauce to coat evenly and infuse them with bold, spicy-sweet flavor.
- Serve: Serve the wings immediately for the best texture and taste, garnished with sesame seeds or chopped green onions if desired.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, you can use an air fryer instead of baking.
- Adjust the spice level by reducing the amount of gochujang according to your taste.
