Cooking Instructions

Chicken Wings Preparation: Chicken wingettes are recommended for this recipe. However, it is also okay to buy whole chicken wings and cut them to separate the wingettes and the drumettes of the wing. After that, slice each wingette/drumette down the middle. This crucial step ensures thorough marination and a burst of flavor with each bite.
-
Marinate Chicken Wings: Blend with 1 tablespoon each of soy sauce and oyster sauce, plus 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and a teaspoon each of white pepper and salt. Mix thoroughly and set aside for 10 minutes. Utilize this time to prepare other ingredients.
- Hot Pepper and Garlic Prepping: Chop chili peppers into tiny rings and mince the garlic finely.
- Frying Chicken Wings: Warm 4 tablespoons of oil, add the wings and fry on medium-low heat for 3 minutes. Turn them over and fry for another 3 minutes.
- Garlic Time: Introduce minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute.
- Combination: Add chopped chili peppers, sautéing for an extra 30 seconds.
