Soy Sauce Chicken Wings (豉油雞翼)

Soy sauce chicken wings is a classic Cantonese home-cooked dish and something I always had when I was a kid! It’s so delicious and the sauce goes so well with rice.

ingredients:

• 500g chicken wings
• 3 slices ginger
• 2 garlic cloves
• 2 tbsp light soy sauce
• 1 tbsp Shaoxing cooking wine
• 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
• 8g rock sugar (or 1 tbsp sugar)
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 cinnamon stick
• 2 star anise
• 1 cup water
• 1 green onion, chopped (garnish)

steps:

1. Heat a pan over medium heat and add ginger, garlic, cinnamon stick, and star anise. Sauté until fragrant.
2. Add the chicken wings to the pan and cook until both sides are golden brown.
3. Pour in the Shaoxing wine, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, rock sugar, and water, ensuring that the liquid covers half of the chicken wings.
4. Cover the pan with a lid and simmer over low to medium heat for 6-8 minutes. Flip the chicken wings halfway through the cooking process.
5. After 6-8 minutes, remove the lid and continue cooking the chicken wings for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced and thickened to your desired consistency.
6. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve with steamed rice. Enjoy!
