I love cooking chicken wings. If you click to browse the recipe index, you’ll find many chicken wing dishes already posted on this blog. What I love about cooking wings is that they can be turned into many tasty dishes without any difficulty.

My family is quite obsessed with chicken wings. If I add some more sauces, such as Sriracha sauce, the family would definitely love every bit of the dish. The mild hot taste of Sriracha works like a charm and makes the family wants more.

The other day I experimented with adding some orange zest and juice to cook wings with Sriracha sauce. Oh my goodness, they're so absolutely finger-licking good. The fragrance and sweetness of orange took the whole dish up a notch.

The wings were cooked until tender and absorbed all the flavours of the hot chilli sauce and seasonings. Another thing that I didn’t expect was that the orange fragrance drew everyone in the house to want dinner instantly.

Orange-Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings

Ingredients:
  • 620 gm chicken wings, tips removed
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
Seasonings:
  • 3 tsp Sriracha sauce
  • 2 tsp honey
  • 3 tsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tsp Balsamic vinegar
  • 1 orange zest, only orange part
  • ½ orange, juiced
  • ¼ cup water

Method:
  1. Chop the chicken wings and blanch in boiling water for about 3 minutes to remove any blood and impurities. Drain well. Set aside.
  2. Combine all the seasonings. Place in a wok. Add garlic and chicken wings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook with a lid on until the wings are done. Remove the lid. Increase heat to high. Continue to cook until the sauce reduced to thicken to your liking. Serve immediately.

Notes:
  • Sriracha is a kind of mild chilli sauce, available at Asian grocers. I used the brand, Huy Fong Foods, with a rooster on the bottle. If you like hottest taste, feel free to add more of it.
  • To get the best results, taste the orange to make sure it’s sweet enough before cooking with chicken wings.

  6. Thanks for the recipe! My husband and I made 4 lbs of wings. Ended up using one whole garlic and threw everything into our Philips Airfryer (instead of using a wok). It was yummy! :D...

    1. Hi Deborah,
      Drumsticks will work too. They need a bit longer cooking time though.
