A delightful twist on a classic Chinese-inspired dish, these Soy-Honey Glazed Chicken Wings are perfect for any occasion.
Cut the chicken wings into three sections each, discarding the wing tips or reserving them for stock.
Using a sharp knife makes cutting the wings easier and safer.
Heat the vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Ensure the oil is hot enough to sear the chicken for a crispy exterior.
Add the chicken wing sections to the wok and fry until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes.
Avoid overcrowding the wok to ensure even browning.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey, and sherry together.
Stir the sauce well to combine all ingredients evenly.
Add the garlic and ginger to the wok and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken and stir to coat evenly.
Ensure all chicken pieces are well coated with the sauce.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the wok, and let the chicken simmer for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stirring occasionally prevents the sauce from sticking and burning.
Uncover the wok and increase the heat slightly to reduce the sauce until it thickens and glazes the chicken, about 5 minutes.
Keep an eye on the sauce to avoid over-reducing it.
Serve the chicken wings warm with steamed rice or as a standalone appetizer.
Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.
