Ingredients

For 4 servings

Instructions

  1. Pat chicken wings dry thoroughly with paper towels. Toss with cornstarch until every piece is well coated. Let sit for 10 minutes for the coating to adhere.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a large deep pot to 170°C (340°F). Fry the wings in batches for 10 minutes until cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  3. Increase the oil temperature to 190°C (375°F). Fry the wings a second time for 3-4 minutes until extra crispy and deep golden brown.
  4. In a saucepan, combine gochujang, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and minced garlic. Heat over medium until the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
  5. Toss the crispy wings in the sauce until fully coated. Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
