General Tso’s Chicken Wings Recipe
Ingredients
Chicken Wings
- 14 single Chicken Wings
- 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 tablespoon Shaoxing Wine (Chinese Cooking Wine)
- 2/3 cup Cornstarch
General Tso’s Sauce
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 tablespoon Sambal
- 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
- 3 tablespoon White Vinegar
- 2 tablespoon Shaoxing Wine (Chinese Cooking Wine)
- 1/4 cup Chicken Stock
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
For Frying and Stir-Fry
- Frying Oil
- 2 teaspoons Chili Oil with Chili Flakes (Lao Gan Ma)
- 5 to 6 dried whole Thai chilies
- 4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
Directions
- In a mixing bowl, combine chicken wings, black pepper and 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine. Toss well with your hands and set aside.
- In another mixing bowl, combine all ingredients for sauce. Whisk until sugar has dissolved. Set aside.
- Pour frying oil into wok, at least 2 inches deep.
- Heat oil over medium-high heat to 325°F.
- While oil is heating up, add cornstarch to bowl with chicken and stir to coat evenly.
- Carefully add half the chicken wings into the wok one by one. Make sure not to crowd wok. Fry chicken for 5-6 minutes and turn over. Cook 5-6 minutes more or until chicken is fully cooked and golden. Stir with a spatula as needed.
- Gently remove wings and place on a plate lined with paper towels. Repeat with rest of chicken. Set aside.
- Let wings cool completely, so they will be ready to deep fry one more time. This double-frying process will make the chicken extremely crunchy.
- Increase heat to high and bring oil’s temperature to 375°F.
- Deep-fry cooled chicken wings one more time, about 1-2 minutes.
- Gently remove wings and place on a plate lined with paper towels. Repeat with rest of chicken. Set aside.
- Pour used oil into a heat-proof bowl. (If you would like to use this oil again, let it cool while you are cooking and eating, then strain through a strainer lined with paper towels.)
- Wipe your wok lightly with a paper towel.
- Add 2 teaspoons chili oil with chili flakes, dried chili and chopped garlic into cold wok then heat the wok over medium-high heat. Keep stirring with a spatula until you can smell the fragrance from the garlic and chili, about 45 seconds to 1 minute.
- Stir the reserved General Tso’s sauce and add to the wok. Keep stirring until sauce has thickened into syrup and is boiling, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add fried chicken to sauce and toss everything together for about 30 seconds, evenly coating chicken with sauce. Remove from heat immediately.
- Transfer to a serving plate and enjoy with a glass of ice cold beer!
