Soy Sauce Chicken Wings 紅燒雞翼

Step 1

Step 4

Add water to barely cover, light and dark soy sauce, rock sugar and star anise. Turn heat to med low and cover. Simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the bottom wings from sticking to wok.

Take out the wings. Reduce the stock left in wok over high heat until glossy and thick.

Pour reduced sauce over chicken wings.
