2 lbs

to taste

Vegetable oil

2 tablespoons

Soy sauce

1/2 cup

Honey

1/4 cup

Garlic cloves, minced

3

Fresh ginger, grated

1 tablespoon

Sesame oil

1 tablespoon

Rice vinegar

2 tablespoons

Green onions, sliced

4

1 tablespoon, plus extra for garnish

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. To prepare the marinade, whisk together soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, rice vinegar, sesame seeds, and half of the sliced green onions in a bowl.
3. Place the chicken wings in a large ziplock bag. Pour the marinade into the bag, seal it, and massage the marinade into the wings. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for the flavors to fully absorb.
4. Heat the vegetable oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken wings from the marinade, shaking off excess, and place them in the hot skillet. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Sear the chicken wings for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown.
6. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken wings are fully cooked and crispy.
7. Allow the wings to rest for a few minutes after removing them from the oven.
8. Garnish the wings with remaining sliced green onions and extra sesame seeds. Serve hot and enjoy!
