Sesame Chicken Wings. They’re BOMB! You have to make them, so I will not waste anytime talking…
Please tell me that I’m not the only one that gets completely grossed out by the sight of raw chicken! YUCK! I can even touch it with my bare hands. I always use gloves. Still gonna eat them though.
Put the Deep Fryer Away! We have baking powder, baby! Baking powder helps our wings crisp up in the oven to give them the texture of deep fried wings. I use 1 tablespoon per pound of wings.
Then, line the longest baking sheet with parchment paper. Place your wings on top giving them some elbow room. Well, they don’t have elbows, but you know…room to breathe. Wait…
When you make this glaze, don’t panic at the quantity. It will be enough! You’re coating the bird not soaking them. If you want more sauce, just double the recipe. And if you like it spicy, add a tsp or two of cayenne pepper!
So, what’s your preference? Flats or drums? 
Happy Cooking,
