Korean Style Chicken Wings

When I visited South Korea I had some interesting food. The blood clot soup was quite good if you can get past the blood clots. I also had Korean chicken and found the dish quite tasty and unique. I first made the sauce traditionally with Gochujang which gives it a funky fermented flavor. I then substituted sriracha sauce for the Gochujang and loved the sauce.

Ingredients

20 minutes
2-3 servings
  1. 2 lbschicken wings (12-15 wings)
  2. 2 Tbspbaking powder
  3. 1 tspsalt
  4. 1 tspblack pepper
  5. Sauce
  6. 3 TbspKetchup
  7. 3 TbspSriracha sauce (for a more traditional taste use Gochujang)
  8. 2 TbspHoney
  9. 2 TbspBrown sugar
  10. 2 TbspSoy sauce
  11. 2 TbspRice vinegar
  12. 2 TbspGarlic minced
  13. 1 TbspFresh ginger minced
  14. 1 TbspRed pepper flakes
  15. 1 TbspSesame oil

Cooking Instructions

20 minutes
  1. 1

    Mix all the sauce ingredients in a small pan. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 5 minutes. Taste and adjust heat or sweetness level.

  2. 2

    Pat dry the chicken wings. In a bowl mix the baking powder, salt and pepper. Toss with the chicken until we’ll coated.

  3. 3

    Fry up the chicken wings in batches. I use a small deep fryer. Set the temperature to 350–375°F. Cook for 6 minutes. When using a deep fryer I find that the internal temperature of the meat continues to rise dramatically even after taking it out of the oil.

  4. 4

    Remove chicken to a rack to let any oil drip off.

  5. 5

    Toss the wings in some sauce to coat them. Plate them and enjoy.

“Fenway” passed away on 2/3/2021. For the last year she tried to teach her husband of 42 years how to cook like her. Although I will never be as good of a cook as her she did pass on her passion for cooking. Therefore, I will attempt to carry on her legacy and maintain/update her site. My wife was a Registered Nurse, a licensed deep water aerobics instructor, a mother to our 2 children and a fantastic cook. We grew up in New England but have been fortunate to live all over the US. I am now retired, missing her terribly, but thankful for all the years we had together and all her cooking lessons.

Baked my wings at 425° for 45 minutes. Came in to say the sauce is exceptional. Cooked the sauce in my wok so I just had to toss the wings in it to coat
