Instructions
-
To your chicken wings add light soy sauce, oyster sauce, Shaoxing cooking wine, sesame seed oil, onion powder, garlic powder, chili flakes, and oil.
-
Mix well and marinate for a few hours or overnight.
-
Air fry at 380 degrees F for 9 minutes. Flip the wings and air fry for another 9 minutes. If you are baking the wings you may need more cooking time. Cook until brown and cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should read a minimum of 165 degrees F on a quick read thermometer.
-
Create the sauce for the chicken wings by combining sesame seed oil, sweet chili sauce, light soy sauce, chopped cilantro and scotch bonnet pepper in a large bowl.

Add your wings to the sauce and toss well.

Garnish with black and white sesame seeds and thinly sliced green onion. Enjoy!
