Baked Gochujang Chicken Wings

Ingredients

• 2 pounds chicken wings
• 1/4 cup gochujang, Korean chili paste
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Sesame seeds for garnish, optional

Directions

1. Set your oven to 400 degrees F, or 200 degrees C.
2. Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper, then put it aside.
3. In a small bowl, stir the ginger, garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce, honey and gochujang together until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
4. Add the chicken wings to a large bowl, pour the marinade on top, and toss until every wing is coated. If you’d like, leave them for 15 minutes, or refrigerate them as long as overnight.
5. Transfer the wings to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, turning them over midway through, until they are fully cooked and nicely browned.
6. Scatter sesame seeds over the wings, if using, then add salt and pepper to taste before serving.
