  • Cornstarch: 1/2 cup for coating

  • Gochujang Korean Chili Paste: 2 tbsp
  • Soy Sauce: 2 tbsp

  • Garlic: 2 cloves minced
  • Ginger: 1 tsp grated
  • Rice Vinegar: 1 tbsp

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Chicken Wings: Start by coating the wings in cornstarch to make them extra crispy. Heat oil in a deep pan or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Fry the wings in batches for 8–10 minutes, or until golden brown. Set them aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
  2. Make the Swicy Sauce: Combine gochujang, soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, and sesame oil in a small saucepan. Stir well and cook over medium heat until the sauce thickens, about 3–4 minutes.
  3. Coat the Wings: Toss the fried wings in the prepared sauce until they are fully coated.
  4. Serve and Garnish: Arrange the wings on a serving platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped spring onions. Serve hot and enjoy!
