Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 3 pounds chicken wings (split, tips discarded)
  • Gingerroot (2 - 2 1/2 inch piece, minced)
  • 1 teaspoon oil (safflower preferred. I've used peanut oil)
  • 2 tablespoons Liquid Aminos or Soy sauce (I've not tried this yet with soy sauce, but really liked the liquid Aminos as it adds a good flavor dimension, but I know that liquid aminos is used as a substitute for soy sauce due to allergies, etc.)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (dark)
  • 3/4 cup Coca Cola
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Sea salt, to taste
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Clean the chicken wings and pat dry.

  • Step 2: Add chicken to a bowl. Add minced ginger and sea salt to taste. Distribute evenly to coat chicken throughout.

  • Step 3: Either cover bowl with plastic wrap or add chicken wings into a ziplock bag, pressing air out and sealing bag. Place in the refrigerator and marinate overnight.

  • Step 4: Add 1 teaspoon of oil to a large sauté pan until hot. Brown chicken wings on both sides and render skin. This will take a little bit of patience, but make sure it is rendered. Note that the wings will exude grease of their own. While doing this cover with lid intermittently to avoid sparks.

  • Step 5: Once wings are rendered, add Liquid Aminos, dark soy sauce, and honey. Turn heat off and add Coco Cola. Turn heat back on, cover with a lid and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Remove lid and let sauce come back up to a boil until chicken is caramelized and sauce is reduced by 1/2 - 1/4.

  • Step 6: Prepare broiler.

  • Step 7: Remove chicken wings with tongs, placing each evenly on a baking sheet.

  • Step 8: Place baking sheet into the oven and broil for 2 - 4 minutes until crisped up, keeping a careful eye on the wings so as they won't burn.

  • Step 9: Serve warm and drizzle reduced sauce over each. These wings can be served as appetizers and as a meal for lunch or dinner.
