Easy Sesame Wings

This is a simple recipe to make, but is incredibly flavorful, and can be served hot or at room temperature, making it a great potluck contribution. You can deep-fry the wings if that's what you prefer, but the baked ones are surprisingly good.

Ingredients

• ¼ cup white sugar
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 ½ teaspoons salt
• ½ cup cornstarch
• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
• ⅓ cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
• ¼ cup oil
• 1 (3 pound) bag chicken wings, tips removed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Whisk cornstarch, soy sauce, oil, flour, sugar, eggs, sesame seeds, salt, and garlic powder together in a bowl. Pour marinade into a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator, 5 hours to overnight.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Step 3

Remove chicken from marinade and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Discard unused marinade.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
