Recipe video above. My family recipe for the ultimate Sticky Chinese Wings, perfected over years with many heated debates! Many of the ingredients can be substituted and you'll still get a similar flavour - refer to the notes. Spiciness: A hint of spicy from the chilli sauce, can be omitted.

Ingredients

1.5 kg /3 lb chicken wings (, cut into drumettes and wingettes (Note 1))
1/2 tsp sesame oil (, toasted )
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp Chinese cooking wine ((Shaoxing wine, sub Mirin, dry sherry))
2 tbsp soy sauce (, light or all purpose)
2 tbsp brown sugar or honey
1 1/2 tbsp hoisin sauce
1 1/2 tbsp oyster sauce
1/4 cup ketchup (or Aussie tomato sauce)
1 tbsp chilli garlic sauce (or sambal oelek (adjust spiciness to taste))
4 cloves garlic (, minced)
1 tbsp ginger (, finely grated)
1/2 tsp five spice powder
Finely sliced shallots/scallions
Sesame seeds
Coriander/cilantro leaves
Finely sliced fresh chili

Method

1
Mix Marinade ingredients.
2
Place wings in large bowl, pour over Marinade and toss well. Set aside for 10 minutes - do not marinate for longer than 1 hour. (Note 3)
3
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F.
4
Line baking tray with foil then greaseproof paper (you'll thank me later).
5
Shake excess marinade off wings (but reserve the marinade) and spread on baking tray - can be fairly snug but not super squished (use 2 trays if needed).
6
Bake 45 - 50 minutes, basting with a brush at 25 minutes and 35 minutes, using the reserved marinade and juieces on the tray.
7
The meat should be able to be pulled off the bones quite easily, they should be just starting to char on the edges and a sticky, dark red/golden colour all over.
8
Sprinkle with garnishes - coriander/cilantro leaves, sesame seeds, chilli, sliced shallots/scallions - then serve!
