Soy sauce chicken wings







wash the chicken wings, (chop or unchop up to u)
submerge ur chicken wings with soy sauce about 200ml, dark sauce 50ml, sesame oil 10ml, pepper 10g, starch/flour 10g.
then rub everything in, give ur chicky good massage
seal it w cling film and leave it to marinate over night.
then when u wake up, give it a toss, so the top chicky gets to the bottom.
and marinate further till ure ready to cook for dinner to cook is simple.
heat pot NO NEED OIL (cos got sesame oil + chicken skin oil le) then pour everything in, once sauce starts simmering, switch to small fire, and cook it for about 30 mins.
occassionally stirring it so it doesnt stick to pot.
before u serve, bring up the sauce to boil once more w bigger fire.
and u can turn off and SERVE! :D ((MAKE SURE CHICKEN IS COOKED THOROUGHLY!))
