Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
Directions
- In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced ginger, minced garlic, Chinese five-spice powder, and red pepper flakes (if desired).
- Add the chicken wings to the marinade and toss until well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.

- Bake the chicken wings for 30-35 minutes, turning them halfway through and basting with the reserved marinade, until they are crispy and golden brown.
- Once cooked, remove the chicken wings from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle with sliced green onions for garnish.
- Serve the Chinese chicken wings hot and enjoy!
