Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat dry 2 pounds chicken wings and toss with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, ensuring each wing is evenly coated.
Step 2: Arrange wings on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet and bake for 35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until skin is crisp and golden.
Step 3: While wings bake, whisk together 3 tablespoons gochujang, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, and 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl until smooth.
Step 4: Once wings are cooked, transfer them to a large bowl and pour the prepared sauce over them. Toss thoroughly to coat each wing in the spicy glaze.
Step 5: Sprinkle 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds and 2 thinly sliced scallions over the wings before serving to add a nutty crunch and fresh aroma.
