### How to Make Sticky Sesame Chicken Wings
Follow these easy steps to create crispy, sticky, and flavorful sesame chicken wings that will leave everyone asking for more!
#### 1. **Prepare the Chicken Wings**
Start by preparing the chicken wings. Pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, which will help them get crispy. Drizzle the wings with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a cooling rack. This will allow the heat to circulate around the wings, ensuring they cook evenly. Bake the wings for about 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure they get crispy on all sides.
Alternatively, you can fry the wings in a skillet with oil for a few minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy, depending on your preference.
#### 2. **Make the Sticky Sesame Glaze**
While the wings are baking, it’s time to prepare the sticky sesame glaze. In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Let it cook for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and becomes glossy.
If you prefer a thicker glaze, mix 1 teaspoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl, then add it to the sauce. Continue simmering until the glaze reaches your desired consistency.
3. **Toss the Wings in the Glaze**
Once the wings are cooked and crispy, remove them from the oven or skillet. Place them in a large bowl and pour the sticky sesame glaze over the wings. Toss them gently until each wing is well-coated in the delicious, glossy sauce.
