INSTRUCTIONS:
DEEP FRY CHICKEN:
Using paper towels, pat dry each chicken wings. Season then dredge each
chicken in cornstarch.
In a saucepan, heat enough oil and deep fry chicken wings in batches until
cooked through. Transfer on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess
oil.
Set aside oil in pan for second re-fry later. Let the chicken cool, dry and
dripped excess oil. Set aside.
In another saucepan, combine onion, garlic, soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar,
garlic powder and ginger. Cook over low-medium heat and keep stirring until
sugar is totally dissolved.
In a small bowl, add cornstarch and 3 tablespoon of the soy-garlic mixture.
Mix it well to dissolve. Add it back to the saucepan and mix it well to thicken
the sauce.
RE-FRY CHICKEN:
Reheat the oil and re-fry the chicken quickly in very hot oil. This will make the
chicken very crispy just like Bon chon chickens.
Drain oil and transfer on a plate line with paper towel. In a large container with
cover transfer all the chicken wings and glaze. Cover the container and shake
it well to even out glaze
Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds upon serving. Happy cooking and enjoy!
