Ingredients

Chicken wings (1 kg)
All-purpose flour (1 cup)
Cornstarch (1 cup)
Salt (1 teaspoon)
Black pepper (1 teaspoon)
Garlic powder (1 teaspoon)
Ginger powder (1 teaspoon)
Vegetable oil (for deep frying)
Soy sauce (1/2 cup)
Honey (1/4 cup)
Gochujang (Korean chili paste) (1/4 cup)
Rice vinegar (2 tablespoons)
Toasted sesame oil (1 tablespoon)
Green onions (2 stalks, sliced)

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and ginger powder.
Coat the chicken wings evenly with the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Set aside.
Heat ample vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large, deep pan to 350°F (175°C).
Fry the chicken wings in batches for about 10-12 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried chicken and drain on paper towels.
To prepare the sauce, combine soy sauce, honey, gochujang, rice vinegar, and toasted sesame oil in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens slightly, this should take about 5 minutes.
Toss the crispy chicken wings in the sauce until they're evenly coated.

Serve immediately while hot. Enjoy your journey through the flavors of Korea!
