Ingredients

• 2 pounds Pork spareribs or chicken wings
• 6 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cup Soy sauce
• 0.25 cup Honey
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon Water
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 2 stalks Green onions, sliced (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) if you are baking. If frying, heat oil in a deep fryer or large skillet to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

If using spareribs, cut the ribs into bite-sized pieces. For chicken wings, separate the drumettes from the wingettes if not already done.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, and minced garlic to create the marinade.

Step 4

Add the spareribs or chicken wings to the marinade, making sure they're fully coated. Cover and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours for a deeper flavor).

Step 5

Transfer the spareribs or chicken wings onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper if baking, or place them directly into the hot oil if frying.

Step 6

Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes, turning halfway through for even cooking, or fry for about 8-10 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

While the ribs or wings are cooking, prepare the glaze: Pour the leftover marinade into a small saucepan and bring it to a boil. Lower the heat to simmer and cook for about 5 minutes.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Stir this into the simmering marinade to thicken the glaze to your desired consistency.

Step 9

Once the spareribs or wings are done, toss them in the thickened glaze until evenly coated.

Step 10

Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions if desired and serve immediately. Enjoy your garlic spareribs or chicken wings!
