A delightful twist on classic chicken wings, these honey garlic wings are cooked to perfection in a slow cooker, making them tender and flavorful.
Prepare the chicken wings by rinsing them and patting them dry.
Ensure the wings are completely dry for better browning.
Cut off the wing tips and separate each wing into two sections.
Save the wing tips for making chicken stock later.
Place the wing sections on a broiler pan and broil them 4-5 inches from the heat for 10 minutes on each side until browned.
Broiling adds a nice caramelized flavor to the wings.
Transfer the browned wings to the slow cooker.
Arrange the wings in a single layer for even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the onion, soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, and white wine. Mix well.
Mix the sauce thoroughly to ensure all flavors are well combined.
Pour the sauce over the wings in the slow cooker.
Ensure the wings are evenly coated with the sauce.
Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours, stirring once halfway through.
Cooking on low ensures the wings become tender and flavorful.
Serve the wings directly from the slow cooker, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds or chopped green onions for added presentation.
