_Sips tea_ Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you about a Chinese recipe that’s been making my family go absolutely crazy! Trust me, once you try these Crispy Honey Garlic Chicken Wings, you’ll be wondering where this recipe has been all your life.
You know those moments when you’re craving something sweet, savory, and totally addictive? Well, honey, I’ve got you covered! These wings are perfect for your afternoon snack or when you’re hosting friends (and want to show off your cooking skills, because why not?).
Let’s get down to business! Here’s what you’ll need:
For the wings:
– 2 lbs chicken wings
– 2 tbsp soy sauce
– 1 tsp Chinese five-spice powder
– 2 cloves minced garlic
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Cornstarch for coating
For that heavenly sauce:
– 4 tbsp honey
– 3 tbsp soy sauce
– 4 cloves minced garlic (yes, more garlic!)
– 1 tbsp rice vinegar
– 1 tsp sesame oil
– Red pepper flakes (depending on how spicy you like it, honey!)
Okay, girlies (and guys), here’s how we make magic happen:
1. First, marinate those wings in soy sauce, five-spice, garlic, salt, and pepper for at least 30 minutes. Trust me, patience is key here!
1. Pat the wings dry (nobody likes soggy wings, am I right?) and coat them in cornstarch.
1. Heat your oil to 375°F and fry these babies until golden brown and crispy (about 8-10 minutes).

1. While the wings are getting crispy, let’s make that sauce! In a pan, combine all sauce ingredients and simmer until it thickens slightly.
1. Toss those crispy wings in the sauce and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
Y’all, when I tell you these wings are life-changing, I mean it! They’re sticky, sweet, garlicky, and everything you need in your life right now.
Pro tip: Make extra sauce because you’ll want to drizzle it on literally everything. Ask me how I know! 😉
The best part? These wings stay crispy even after being coated in sauce – none of that soggy business here! I like to serve mine with some cucumber sticks on the side to balance out all that sweet-savory goodness.
