CHINESE CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Stir the soy sauce, brown sugar, and garlic powder together in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir until the sugar melts completely. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
• Place the chicken wings in a large bowl. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the wings and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Allow chicken to marinate in refrigerator overnight or 8 hours.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pour the chicken wings and marinade into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until thoroughly hot, about 45 minutes. Remove the aluminum foil from the baking dish and continue baking uncovered another 15 minutes. Serve hot.

TAILGATING ASIAN WINGS

Steps:

• For the wings at home:
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Season the wings with salt and pepper. Arrange the chicken wings on a baking sheet in a single layer. Put in the preheated oven and cook for 45 minutes.
• Remove the wings from the oven to a bowl and allow to cool. Cover and refrigerate until ready to finish at the event on the barbecue.
• For the Asian sauce at home:
• Combine all of the ingredients in a resealable gallon-size plastic bag and combine well.
• For the wings tailgaiting:
• Preheat a grill to 350 degrees F, prepared for indirect heat. Add all the wings and cook for 10 to 15 minutes to reheat and get some grill marks, turning after 7 minutes. Remove the wings from the grill to a serving bowl. Add the sauce and toss to combine.

ORIENTAL HOT WINGS

Steps:

• Combine everything except chicken wings in a heavy sauce pan and bring to a boil.
• Pour over chicken wings coating each wing well. (I use a zip lock bag to store in the frig and turn it frequently).
• Let stand in the frig overnight.
• Preheat over to 350°F.
• Place chicken wings on an aluminum foil lined baking dish with sauce and bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes turning often, brushing with sauce.
• The sauce will caramelize. It is best when using only the drum stick of the wing.
• (If you prefer, use half of the sauce to marinade the chicken reserving half for basting. I've used both methods and it works well).

STICKY AND CRISPY ASIAN CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 120C/250F and place a rack on a large baking tray.
• Cut each wing at the joint so you have a mini wing and a drumette. Dry the wings with paper towels, then place in a large bowl and add the baking powder, salt and pepper. Toss to combine. Note - it's important to dry the wings first so they only get a light coating. Discard any remaining coating once tossed together.
• Place in a single layer on the rack, skin side up. It's fine for them to be touching. Place on the lower shelf of the oven for 30 minutes.
• After 30 minutes, turn the oven up to 220c (425f), rotate the tray and place on a higher shelf (higher middle) in the oven for 45-50 minutes until the wings are golden and crispy. Take out of the oven to cool slightly.
• Place all of the sauce ingredients into a saucepan, stir and bring to the boil. Allow to bubble for 5-10 minutes until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly (it will thicken more as it cools). Turn off the heat.
• Place the wings in a large bowl and very carefully pour over the sticky sauce (be careful, it will VERY hot). Toss to combine, then serve topped with chopped spring onions.

ASIAN HOT WINGS BY PIONEER WOMAN/ REE DRUMMOND (MAKE AHEAD)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Heat 3 inches of canola oil in a heavy pot to 375 degrees F.
• Add half the chicken wing parts to the oil and fry them until they're golden brown and fully cooked, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the other half of the wing parts.
• Add the plum jelly to a bowl. Then stir in the soy sauce and rice wine vinegar. Add the brown sugar, ginger, red onions, garlic, red pepper flakes and hot peppers. Stir to combine, and then pour it into a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the sauce until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes. Then turn off the heat.
• Place the wings in an ovenproof dish and pour the sauce over the top, reserving some sauce for serving. Toss to coat, and then bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
• Place the wings in dishes, and then spoon extra sauce over the top. Serve with cool vegetables to go with that delicious heat.
