  • 2 Garlic Clives grated
  • 1 Teaspoon Molasses
  • Zest of 1 Orange
  • 1 Tablespoon Orange Juice

For the wings:

  • 2 Pounds Chicken Wings
  • 1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
  • Sesame Seeds for topping
  • Chopped Green Onion for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with tin foil and then a heatproof wire rack. Set off to the side.
  2. Remove the tips of the wings and discard or save for making stock. Using kitchen shears, or a sharp knife, separate the wings at the joint.
  3. Toss the wings in a small mixing bowl with corn starch and a little salt. Place the wings on the wire rack.
  4. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, flip over and bake for another 20 minutes.
  5. Add all the sauce ingredients to a heatproof mixing bowl. Whisk to combine. Microwave the sauce for 90 seconds to thicken it up. Mix again.
  6. Remove the wings from the oven again and flip the last time and bake for 10 minutes.
  7. Remove crispy hot wings from the oven. Add to a plate and pour the sauce over the wings. Toss around to evenly coat. Top with sesame seeds and green onion. Serve with a side of ranch or blue cheese for dipping.
  8. Best the day of. If you are eating again later in the week, the best way to reheat is on a wire rack under the broiler on low for 4-5 minutes.
