Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 2 pounds Chicken Wings Consider using chicken thighs for a healthier option.
For the Glaze
  • 1 cup Cola Avoid diet cola for best results.
  • 1/4 cup Dark Soy Sauce
  • 1/4 cup Light Soy Sauce Tamari works as a gluten-free substitute.
  • 1 tablespoon Ginger Freshly grated.
  • 2 tablespoons Shaoxing Wine Swap with rice vinegar and sugar for alcohol-free.
  • 1 tablespoon Chili Garlic Sauce Optional for spice.

Equipment

  • large skillet
  • rack for drying wings

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by patting the chicken wings dry with paper towels; allow them to air-dry on a rack for about 10 minutes.
  2. In a large skillet, pour in the cola, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, freshly grated ginger, and Shaoxing wine. Heat until boiling, then reduce to medium-low and simmer for approximately 10 minutes.
  3. Add the chicken wings to the skillet with the sauce. Cook for about 20 to 25 minutes, turning occasionally, until fully cooked.
  4. Lift a wing to check the glaze consistency; it should be thick and honey-like. If too thin, simmer uncovered until thickened.
