"My Family recipe for sticky Chinese Chicken Wings! Tossed in a sweet, garlicky Asian sauce, then baked in the oven and basted until deeply golden and very, very sticky….. These sticky Chinese chicken wings were my late Aunts recipe for New Years tradition. Now I am asked to bring this dish to parties, and make them all year long!"
Chinese Sticky Chicken Wings
Restaurant Copy-cat recipe of a now closed 50+ year old famous East Coast restaurant.
Servings: 12
Prep Time: 5 Minutes
Cook Time: 1 Hour and 30 Minutes
Ingredients:
Chicken
5 pounds chicken wings, split, cleaned and tips discarded
Sauce
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2-3 tbsp oriental five spice powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup soy sauce or light soy sauce
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 teaspoon ginger
Garnish
1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds for garnish, optional
3 stalks scallions sliced small, optional
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Line baking tray with foil then spray with nonstick cooking spray or use a disposable foil pan with a sheet pan under for support. (Trust me, you'll thank me later)!
Lay out chicken wings on prepared pan in one layer, be careful not to stack them. Use a second tray if needed.
In a medium bowl mix together all sauce ingredients, mix well.
Bake in the preheated oven until thoroughly hot, about 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours. The meat should be able to be pulled off the bones quite easily, they should be just starting to char on the edges and a sticky, dark golden brown in color all over.
Remove from oven, and let sit for 20 minutes. This will thicken and make the sweet sauce stickier. The sticker the better!
Sprinkle with garnishes - sesame seeds, sliced scallions - then serve!
These wings go great with my Ramen Noodle Asian Salad, Fried Rice, or Chow Mein!

"There’s no way to look elegant when you annihilate a plate of wings. And I wouldn’t have it any other way!"
