"This is an accumulation of several recipes and I am hoping to be making them soon. Times are estimated but cook time includes the 20 minutes when the wings are of the heat before going to the grill/broiler."

Step 1

Cut wings into 3 sections, you can discard tips or do as I do put them in bag, seal and then add them to my stash of wings in a box in my freezer and at a later date use them to make chicken wings.

Step 2

Whisk together the first 8 ingredients in a large bowl.

Step 3

Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add to the bowl and marinate in the fridge for 2 hours.

Step 4

Remove chicken wings from marinade.

Step 5

Cover the inside of a wok with heavy duty aluminum foil leaving about 12 cm (5 inches) hanging over either side.

Step 6

Place the sugar, green tea, rice, star anise, and sesame seeds in the foil in the wok and stir.

Step 7

Heat over medium high heat for about 5-8 minutes, the mixture should begin to smoke and then place a rack over the wok and put chicken wings on the rack and cover with a second piece of foil, using the overhanging part of the bottom piece of foil to crimp together with the top piece and form a tight seal and cook over the heat for 12 minutes, then turn off the heat and leave for an additional 20 minutes (this will infuse the smoke into the wings).
