SLOW-COOKER CHICKEN WINGS



Slow-Cooker Chicken Wings image

The key to these super flavorful, tender wings is cooking them low and slow in a sticky-sweet Chinese-style BBQ sauce. A quick trip under the broiler gives them a crispy char -- just like at your favorite wing joint.

Time 2h40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 pounds chicken wings, split
Kosher salt
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
2 scallions, thinly sliced on a bias, for serving

Steps:

  • Put the chicken wings in a 6-quart slow cooker and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Mix together the honey, hoisin, soy sauce, oyster sauce, ginger and five-spice powder in a small bowl or measuring cup. Pour the sauce over the wings and toss to mix. Cover and cook on high, stirring occasionally, until the wings are cooked through and tender and the sauce is slightly thickened, about 2 hours and 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the broiler to high. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Transfer the wings to the baking sheet using tongs or a slotted spoon. Drizzle about 1/2 cup of the sauce over the wings; discard any remaining sauce. Broil, flipping the wing halfway through, until golden, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle with the scallions and serve warm.

GRANDMOTHER'S CHINESE CHICKEN WINGS



Grandmother's Chinese Chicken Wings image

My daughter asks for Chinese chicken wings for Christmas and for her birthday. The only thing I changed was to use fish sauce instead of oyster sauce(I don't do shellfish). I saw this on The Best Thing I Ever Made(by Andrew Zimmern, episode: Tasty Travels) and posted it to make for her. Andrew said the first time he tasted this dish was in Hong Kong and it took him 20 years to get the recipe. For his video on how to make, look here=http://andrewzimmern.com/2012/11/16/the-best-thing-i-ever-made-grandmas-chinese-chicken-wings/

Categories     Chicken

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 12

16 whole chicken wings, flap segments removed and saved for stock
1/3 cup sake
1/3 cup soy sauce
4 tablespoons brown sugar (If you like it sweeter, add more. You can check the flavor of the sauce at any time and I encourage )
2 -3 tablespoons mirin
3 tablespoons fish sauce (originally oyster sauce-can try with hoisin sauce)
4 large thin slices fresh ginger
1 -2 cloves star anise
1 dried hot chili pepper
1 cinnamon stick
shaved green onion, for garnish (julienne cut)
sesame seeds, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place a 14-inch nonstick saute pan over high heat. Add the chicken and dry-sear to lightly brown the chicken.
  • Add the sake, soy sauce, 1/3 cup water, brown sugar, mirin, hoisin sauce, ginger, star anise, dried chile and cinnamon stick and bring to a simmer.
  • Cook, covered, about 12 minutes.
  • Uncover and simmer until the pan is almost dry, tossing frequently to coat the wings, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Skim off the fat if you like(not recommended), and serve, garnishing with scallion shavings and sesame seeds. Andrew likes to emulsify the chicken fat into the sauce by turning up the heat at the last minute to boil the fat into the other liquids.

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Chinese Marinade:
1 1/4 cups soy sauce
1 1/4 cups rice wine or sake
1 cup water
12 whole scallions, ends trimmed, smashed with the flat side of a knife
10 cloves garlic, smashed with the flat side of a knife
2 1/2-inch chunk fresh ginger, peeled, then cut into 10 slices about the size of a quarter, each smashed with the flat side of a knife
3 1/2 to 4 pounds chicken wings (about 20), rinsed and drained

Steps:

  • Stir the Chinese Marinade ingredients in a saucepan and heat until boiling. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Let the marinade cool slightly.
  • With a sharp knife separate the drumettes from the wingtips at the joint. Place all the pieces in a bowl or a deep pan and add the still-warm marinade. Stir to coat, cover with plastic wrap, and let the wings marinate for several hours, or overnight if possible, in the refrigerator.
  • Preheat the oven to 500°F. Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and arrange the wings on the cookie sheets. Brush liberally with the marinade. Roast for about 40 minutes, turning once, until the wings are cooked and crispy brown at the edges. Serve hot, at room temperature, or cold as an appetizer or an entr e with a vegetable and steamed rice.

CHINESE CHICKEN WINGS

Really good, simple recipe! Really yummy wings. I never have any leftovers. Marinating time is added in prep time.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 9h

Yield 6-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 lbs chicken wings
3/4 cup soy sauce
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup oil
1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients.
  • Add wings and marinate overnight.
  • (I have often marinated in fridge for 1 to 2 days) Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Marinate the chicken wings for at least 30 minutes. This will help the flavors to penetrate the chicken and make them more tender.
  • Use a combination of light and dark soy sauce. This will give the chicken wings a rich and flavorful color.
  • Don't overcrowd the chicken wings in the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the chicken wings over medium-high heat. This will help them to get crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
  • Serve the chicken wings with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include sweet and sour sauce, honey garlic sauce, and chili sauce.

Conclusion:

These Grandmother's Chinese Chicken Wings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a party or a weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal, give these chicken wings a try!
