Ingredients

Whole chicken wings, about 1.5 lb total (680 g total)
1 / 2 cup (120 ml) soy sauce
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp (15 ml) fresh ginger, grated
2 tbsp (30 g) brown sugar
1 tbsp (15 ml) sesame oil
2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
1 tbsp (9 g) sesame seeds (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Make the marinade: In a large mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, and sesame oil. Stir until the brown sugar dissolves completely.
2. Marinate the wings: Add the chicken wings to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for more flavor.
3. Prepare to bake: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
4. Bake the wings: Remove the wings from the marinade and place them on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and cooked through.
5. Serve: Transfer the wings to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot and enjoy!
