Asian Hot Wings by Pioneer Woman/ Ree Drummond (Make Ahead)

I saw these on Food Network Pioneer Woman show. I am planning on making for Super Bowl and put here for safe keeping. I like that they can be fried in advance and reheated in the oven! Perfect for a party!

• Ready In: 1 hr
• Serves: 4
• Yields: 6 wings

Ingredients

•  canola oil, for frying
• 24  chicken wings, parts
• 3⁄4 cup plum jelly
• 1⁄4 cup soy sauce
• 1⁄4 cup  rice wine vinegar
• 1⁄4 cup brown sugar
• 2  tablespoons  chopped fresh ginger
• 2  tablespoons  chopped red onions
• 1  tablespoon  chopped garlic
• 1  tablespoon red pepper flakes (less of you'd like less heat!)
• 3 -4  assorted  hot peppers, minced (serranos, jalapenos, and so on)
•  thinly sliced carrots and cucumber (julienne)

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Heat 3 inches of canola oil in a heavy pot to 375 degrees F.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Place the wings in dishes, and then spoon extra sauce over the top. Serve with cool vegetables to go with that delicious heat.
