Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Step 2

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the wings in a single layer in the center of the baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to combine, then spread back out in a single layer on the baking sheet. Bake until browned and lightly crispy, 40 to 45 minutes. (Leave the oven on.)

Step 3

Meanwhile, combine the brown sugar, fish sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic and ginger in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and becomes sticky, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.

Step 4

Transfer the wings to a large bowl, then drizzle the sauce over them and toss to coat well. Bake until browned and sticky, another 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
