EXTRA CRISPY KOREAN-STYLE CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet and set aside. Attach a deep fry thermometer to the side of a large Dutch oven or pot and fill halfway with oil, heat over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, combine the honey, sriracha, soy sauce, lime juice, orange juice and sesame oil in a small saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the sauce is reduced and smooth, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside.
• Whisk the cornstarch, flour, 1 3/4 cups cold water, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl until smooth.
• Working in small batches, dip the chicken in the cornstarch-flour batter, let the excess drip back into the bowl and gently place in the hot oil; stir once or twice to keep the pieces separated. Fry until golden and cooked through, adjusting the heat to keep the oil temperature at 350 degrees F, about 8 or 9 minutes per batch. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and put on the prepared rack to drain briefly. While the wings are still hot, toss them in the sriracha-honey sauce until coated. Transfer them to a serving dish and top with the sesame seeds and scallions and serve with lemon wedges.
