# What You Need:
→ Chicken
01 - 2.5 lbs chicken wings, tips removed, flats and drumettes separated
→ Marinade & Sauce
02 - 1/3 cup soy sauce
03 - 1/4 cup honey
04 - 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
05 - 2 tbsp brown sugar
06 - 2 tbsp rice vinegar
07 - 2 tbsp sesame oil
08 - 4 cloves garlic, finely minced
09 - 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
10 - 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
11 - 1/2 tsp chili flakes
→ Garnish
12 - 2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
13 - 2 green onions, thinly sliced
# How To Make:
01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and position a wire rack on top.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, black pepper, and chili flakes until thoroughly combined.
03 - Add chicken wings to the bowl and toss vigorously to ensure even coating. Set aside 1/4 cup of the marinade separately for later glazing.
04 - Arrange wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack. Bake for 25 minutes to begin rendering fat and developing base flavor.
05 - Remove wings from oven and brush generously with reserved marinade. Return to oven and bake 10-15 minutes longer, turning once and reapplying glaze halfway through, until wings achieve deep caramelization and sticky coating.
06 - Transfer finished wings to serving platter. Sprinkle generously with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions. Serve immediately while hot.
