Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings trimmed
- ¼ cup cornstarch
- Vegetable Oil for oiling the grill
For the sauce:
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoon low sodium Soy Sauce (or Tamari if gluten-free)
- 2 tablespoons Oyster Sauce
- 1 tablespoon Chili Sauce
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
- 1 tablespoon minced Garlic
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh Ginger
- Juice of ½ lime
- Sesame seed garnish
- Cilantro garnish
Instructions
- Place trimmed chicken wings in a large bowl. Sprinkle cornstarch over and toss to coat. On an oiled grill (so the corn starch does not stick) cook over medium heat for 15 minutes a side.
For the sauce:
- While the chicken is grilling, combine all the sauce ingredients into a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat and simmer for about 5 minutes to reduce and to cook the garlic a bit. Remove from heat set aside.
- In a large bowl, toss cooked chicken with sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and cilantro.
- Notes: Coating the chicken with cornstarch gives it a nice crunch as if they were fried.
- You could substitute green onion instead of cilantro. The chili sauce I used is Sambal Oelek available at Walmart, but any chili paste would work, even Sirachha.
