Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken wings
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
For the sauce
- 1 1/2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon rice wine
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/2 tablespoon chili paste/oil optional
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger finely grated
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 400° F (205C).
- Season the wings with salt and pepper and place them on a baking tray lined with foil or a baking mat. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove and flip over the wings. Bake for another 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the sauce ingredients, except for the cornstarch, in a small saucepan over medium high heat. Once boiling, add the cornstarch and cool on a low boil for 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Remove the wings from the oven and baste them liberally with the General Tso sauce.
- Turn your oven to broil, with the top rack lowered to the 2nd row. Broil the wings for 3 minutes. Remove the tray and slather the sauce on the other side of the wings. Broil again.
- Once the wings have gotten a light char on each side, remove them from the oven. If you like more sauce, put the wings in a bowl, add the remaining sauce, and toss to coat.
Notes
- Baste the wings with the sauce and/or toss them with sauce to coat. Both ways are easy and delicious.
- Baking the chicken on a silicon baking mat or parchment paper keeps them from sticking to the baking sheet and makes clean up easy.
