Ingredients
16 chicken wings
Canola oil, for frying
5 cloves garlic
2-inch piece peeled ginger
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon Asian sesame oil
1 tablespoon honey
2⁄3 cup flour
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Directions
Remove the tip of each chicken wing and cut in half at the joint to create 2 pieces. In a heavy pot such as a dutch oven, pour in canola oil to a depth of 2 inches. Heat over medium-high until a deep-fry thermometer reads 350 degrees F. In the meantime, pulse the ginger and garlic in a food processor until minced, then add the soy, gojujang, vinegar, oil, and honey. In a large bowl, whisk the cornstarch, flour, and water together to make a loose paste. Add the chicken wings and toss well to coat. Fry the chicken in batches for 6 minutes, until golden, then drain on paper towels and bring the oil back up to 350 degrees F. Fry for a second time until it is crisp, 6 to 8 minutes more. Drain on paper towels, toss with the sauce, and serve.
