Ingredients

• ½ cup white sugar
• vegetable oil for frying
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 10 chicken wings
• ¼ cup minced garlic
• ½ cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot®)
• 1 ½ tablespoons slivered green onions

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Chill a metal bowl in the freezer.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir garlic until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add hot sauce and sugar to garlic; cook and stir until mixture is reduced and bubbling, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cook wings in the hot oil until no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Step 4

Remove wings from hot oil using a slotted spoon and transfer to the chilled bowl. Add garlic-hot sauce to wings and toss to coat. Transfer coated wings to a serving platter and garnish with green onion.
