Korean Chicken Wings (Baked!)

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or place an oven-safe wire rack over the baking sheet.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix the oil, gochugaru, salt, and pepper until blended. Pat the chicken wings dry, then toss them in the oil mixture until well coated.

Step 3

Arrange the wings in a single layer on the baking sheet and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and crispy. Turn them halfway through the baking time.

Step 4

While the wings are baking, combine the soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar, gochujang, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil in a small saucepan over medium heat.

Step 5

Stir the mixture occasionally and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Remove the glaze from the heat and set aside.

Step 6

When the wings are baked and crispy, immediately transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the hot glaze over the top and carefully toss until all the wings are evenly coated.

Step 7

Transfer the glazed wings to a serving platter and sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish. Serve immediately and enjoy!
