Instructions

1. Step 1: Pat dry 1 lb chicken wings and season lightly with salt. Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add wings and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally until golden and cooked through.
2. Step 2: Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp brown sugar, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp grated ginger, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tsp sesame oil until sugar dissolves.
3. Step 3: Pour the soy glaze over the cooked wings in the skillet. Reduce heat to medium and toss wings continuously for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the wings.
