Ingredients
6 chicken wings
2 cloves garlic, grated
2 teaspoons grated ginger
2 teaspoons gluten-free soy sauce or tamari
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon gochujang Korean chili paste
1 teaspoon honey
Directions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the grated garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, gochujang, and honey until well blended into a smooth marinade.
Add the chicken wings to the marinade and massage the sauce thoroughly into each wing to ensure all pieces are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, for best flavor.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking tray with foil and place a wire rack on top.
Arrange the marinated chicken wings on the wire rack in a single layer. Reserve the remaining marinade in a small bowl for glazing. Bake the wings for 30 minutes.
Remove the wings from the oven and brush them generously with the reserved marinade, coating all sides well. Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the wings reach an internal temperature of 165°F and the glaze is slightly caramelized.
Transfer the wings to a serving platter and enjoy while still warm as an appetizer or snack.
Comments
Gochujang is the sole special stop—Harris Teeter carries it reliably, but not every Food Lion or Walmart does, so budget the extra errand if you're not there already. The 140 minutes is honest for marinating and baking, though active time is under 15 minutes, making this a Sunday project rather than weeknight save; the wings reheat well and feed four generously for around $12 to $14 total, driven by the chicken itself. Garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil are staples at any Charlotte chain, and honey is everywhere. The dish suits a family meal or game-day crowd, requires no fussy technique, and tastes better the next day when flavors deepen.
