Orange Sesame Chicken Wings

Directions

1. Whisk your orange juice, orange zest, soy sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, ginger, garlic, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, and water into a small bowl. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved.

2. Season the chicken with salt, to taste. Heat oil of choice in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. In 2 batches, add the chicken wings and cook, turning frequently in the pan, until they are golden brown. This should be about 4 minutes. 

3. Add half the sauce and bring it to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium and gently simmer, until the chicken wings are cooked and the sauce has reduced by 1/3. About 10-12 minutes.

4. Stir the cornstarch with the remaining tablespoon of orange juice in a bowl. Stir half the mixture into the sauce and return to a full boil. Fold wings in the sauce until coated. Repeat with the second batch. Combine the two batches of chicken, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and toss again.

5. Serve with white rice.
