Ingredients
 
 

For the Wings

  • 2 lbs Chicken Wings - drums, flats or a mix
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder - aluminum-free
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt
  • ½ tsp Black Pepper
  • ½ tsp Garlic Powder

For the Sauce

  • 2 tbsp Gochujang - Korean chili paste
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 2 tbsp Honey - or brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp Rice Vinegar - or lime juice
  • 2 cloves Garlic - minced
  • 1 tsp Fresh Ginger - minced
  • 1 tbsp Sesame Oil

To Serve

  • 1 tbsp Fresh Cilantro (Coriander) - chopped

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place a wire rack on top.
  • Pat the chicken wings completely dry with paper towels - this step is key for crispiness.
  • Toss the wings in the baking powder, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Arrange the wings on the rack in a single layer.
  • Bake for 40 - 45 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
  • Meanwhile, combine the gochujang, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil in a small saucepan. Simmer gently for 3 - 4 minutes until slightly thickened.
  • Transfer the hot and crispy wings to a bowl. Pour over half the sauce, and toss to coat. Add more sauce as needed.
  • Serve sprinkled with chopped fresh cilantro and the remaining sauce.
