Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons white sugar
• 2 tablespoons water
• 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
• 2 cups vegetable oil for frying, or as needed
• 1 tablespoon dry gin
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 cup soy sauce
• 1.5 pounds chicken wings, tips removed and wings cut in half at joint

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Whisk together soy sauce, water, gin, ginger, and sugar in a small bowl.

Step 2

Arrange wings in a single layer in a baking dish and pour soy sauce mixture over top. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Pour oil into a 2-quart saucepan and heat oil 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Drain and discard marinade from wings.

Step 4

Fry wings in batches in the hot oil until browned on the outside and no longer pink at the bone, 10 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Step 5

Drain cooked wings on paper towels before serving.
