Description

Discover the ultimate crispy chicken wings tossed in a vibrant spring‑onion, ginger, and chili glaze. Perfect for game night or a flavorful appetizer, this recipe delivers bold heat, sweet undertones, and a satisfyingly crunchy bite that will wow any crowd.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 chicken wings, separated into drums and flats
  • ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp fine sea salt
  • 3 spring onions, trimmed, white and green parts very finely chopped
  • 30g fresh ginger, peeled and very finely chopped
  • 2 green chillies, stalks discarded, flesh finely chopped
  • 1 pinch coarse sea salt
  • 80ml vegetable oil
  • 1 generous tsp caster sugar
  • 1 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar

Instructions

  1. Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and place them in a large bowl.
  2. Sprinkle the bicarbonate of soda over the wings, add garlic powder, fine sea salt, and toss to coat evenly.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 180°C (350°F). Fry the wings in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 8‑10 minutes per batch.
  4. While the wings fry, combine chopped spring onions, fresh ginger, green chilies, coarse sea salt, caster sugar, light soy sauce, and rice vinegar in a small bowl to form the glaze.
  5. Remove the wings from oil and drain on a wire rack; immediately brush the hot glaze over the wings, ensuring each piece is well‑coated.
  6. Serve the glazed wings hot, garnished with extra chopped spring onions if desired.

Notes

For extra crispiness, toss the wings in a light cornstarch coating before frying. Substitute rice vinegar with lime juice for a citrus twist. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; reheat in a hot oven to retain crunch. Adjust chili heat by varying the amount of green chilies.
