Korean Chicken Wings

Submitted by Chilicat

"This is my absolute favorite way to make fried wings. You can also dump the wings straight into the oil without flouring first - the wings end up crispy but without the "battered" coating. This recipe will also work with unthawed individually frozen wings."

• Ingredients: 8
• Yields: 5 lbs.

ingredients

• 5 lbs chicken wings
• 1 -2 cup flour
• oil (for frying)

• Sauce

• 3 stalks green onions, minced
• 1 hot chili pepper, crushed

directions

1. Heat oil for deep frying, usually 375°F.

This sauce is good!! It has a little too much sugar for my taste. It kind of overtook the flavors of the onion and garlic a little bit. I made it a few hours before frying the wings so that the flavors could meld together. The sugar didn't dissolve very well, so I poured the sauce into a pan and brought it to a boil and then turned the heat down to low and kept it warm until the fired were done. That brought the flavors out more. I think next time I make this, I will cut the sugar down to 4 tablespoons. Other than the sugar, this is a great recipe!! Thanks chilicat!!
