Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 cup light soy sauce
1 cup rice wine
1 cup water
10 green onions, trimmed and sliced into 2 inch pieces and then smashed lightly
10 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed lightly
2 -3 inches ginger, peeled,cut into chunks and smashed a bit
3 lbs chicken wings, rinsed and drained

Steps:

Combine all ingredients, except chicken wings, together in a saucepan and heat to boiling; reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, then let cool slightly.
Cut the wings by slicing the drumettes from the rest of the wing (I leave the tip on, some people like those) and place the pieces in a bowl and pour the warm marinade over them; marinate for several hours or, preferably, overnight, in the fridge.
Preheat your oven to 500°; line a jelly-roll pan (cookie sheet with sides) with foil (I use that new, nonstick foil, it's great), spray with non-stick spray, and arrange the wings in a single layer, use an extra sheet if necessary.
Brush wings liberally with marinade then roast for about 40 minutes, turning once, until the wings are cooked and crispy brown at the edges.
You can serve these hot, cold or room temperature and they're delicious, or serve as part of a main meal with rice and a vegetable.

1 teaspoon Accent (MSG optional)

Steps:

1. Rinse the chicken wings under cold running water, then drain and blot dry with paper towels. Make 2 or 3 deep slashes, to the bone, in the meaty part of each wing. Place the wings in a large bowl and sprinkle with the garlic, salt, pepper, and Accent (if using). Turn the wings to coat with the seasonings, then cover and let marinate, in the refrigerator, for 2 to 4 hours.2. Preheat the grill to medium high.3. When ready to cook, oil the grill grate. Heat the honey just to warm in a small saucepan on the side burner of the grill, if you have one, or over low heat on the stovetop. Thread each chicken wing on a skewer, running the skewer through all three sections to hold the wing open as wide as possible. Arrange the wings on the hot grate and grill, turning with tongs, until the thicker wing sections are no longer pink near the bone, 12 to 16 minutes in all, brushing the wings during the last 4 minutes of grilling with the warm honey.4. Transfer the wings to a serving platter and serve at once.Makes 12 whole wings serves 4 to 6 as an appetizer

Tips

Use a combination of light and dark meat chicken wings for the best flavor and texture.
To make sure the wings are evenly cooked, grill them over indirect heat for most of the cooking time.

If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the wings in a preheated oven at 400°F for about 25 minutes, or until they are cooked through.
Serve the wings with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or honey mustard.
