Title: Coca Cola Wings
Ingredients:
– 2 lbs chicken wings, tips removed and separated into drumettes and flats
– 1 cup Coca Cola
– 1/2 cup soy sauce
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon ground ginger
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
– 2 tablespoons cornstarch
– Green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)
– Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine Coca Cola, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, ground ginger, and black pepper. Whisk together until the sugar is dissolved and the ingredients are well combined to create the marinade for the wings.
2. Place the chicken wings in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring all the wings are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to infuse into the wings.
3. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease it with vegetable oil to prevent the wings from sticking.
4. Remove the marinated wings from the refrigerator and place them on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, leaving some space between each wing for even cooking. Reserve the marinade for later use.
5. Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Turn the wings halfway through the cooking time to ensure they are evenly crispy on all sides.
6. While the wings are baking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan along with vegetable oil and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and reaches a glossy consistency, about 5-7 minutes.
7. Once the wings are cooked, remove them from the oven and brush the thickened sauce over each wing, coating them generously.
8. Return the wings to the oven and broil on high for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce caramelizes and the wings develop a beautiful glaze.
9. Serve the Coca Cola Wings hot, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for an extra burst of flavor and visual appeal.
Enjoy these irresistible Coca Cola Wings as a delightful appetizer or main dish that will surely impress your guests with their unique flavor profile and finger-licking goodness. Whether you’re hosting a party or simply craving a tasty snack, these wings are the perfect choice for any occasion. Happy cooking and indulging in these deliciously sweet and savory treats!
