Slow Cooker Sticky Honey Soy Chicken Wings
Instructions:
-
Place the chicken wings in your slow cooker.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, ketchup, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Pour over the wings, tossing to coat evenly.
-
Cover and cook on Low for 4–5 hours or High for 2–3 hours, until wings are tender.
-
Preheat the broiler and transfer the wings to a foil-lined baking sheet.
-
Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl to make a slurry. Stir it into the leftover sauce in the slow cooker and heat until thickened.
-
Brush the thickened glaze generously over the wings.
-
Broil for 3–5 minutes, until the edges are slightly caramelized and sticky.
-
Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
