INGREDIENTS
| 2 | tablespoons soy sauce |
| 2 | tablespoons dry sherry |
| 1 | tablespoon sugar |
| 1 | tablespoon cornstarch |
| 3 | cloves garlic, minced, divided |
| 1 | teaspoon red pepper flakes |
| 12 | chicken wings (about 2-1/2 pounds), tips removed and cut into halves |
| 2 | tablespoons vegetable oil |
| 3 | green onions with tops, cut into 1-inch pieces |
| 1/4 | cup chicken broth |
| 1 | teaspoon sesame oil |
| 1 | tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted |
PREPARATION:
- For marinade, combine soy sauce, sherry, sugar, cornstarch, two-thirds of minced garlic and red pepper in large bowl; mix well. Stir in wing pieces; cover and marinate overnight in refrigerator, turning once or twice.
- Drain chicken wings, reserving marinade. Heat wok over high heat 1 minute or until hot. Add vegetable oil and heat 30 seconds. Add half of wings; cook 10 to 15 minutes or until wings are brown on all sides, turning occasionally. Remove with slotted spoon to bowl; set aside. Reheat oil in wok 30 seconds and repeat with remaining wings. Reduce heat to medium. Pour off any remaining oil.
- Add remaining garlic and onions to wok; cook and stir 30 seconds. Add wings and chicken broth. Cover and cook 5 minutes or until wings are tender, stirring occasionally to prevent wings from sticking to bottom of wok.
- Add reserved marinade and stir-fry wings for 1 minute until glazed with marinade. Add sesame oil; mix well. Transfer wings to serving platter; sprinkle with sesame seeds. Garnish, if desired. Serve immediately.
