Spicy Ginger Ale Chicken Wings
- 2 pounds chicken wings (14 to 16 wings), separated at the joint, wingtips removed
- 1 tablespoon Chinese five-spice powder
- 2 tablespoons canola or peanut oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- One 12-ounce can Canada Dry Ginger Ale
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- Cilantro leaves, for serving
- Pat the wings dry with paper towels and sprinkle them evenly on both sides with the five-spice powder.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet with a lid over medium heat.
- Add half the wings and cook, turning occasionally, until lightly browned on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Wipe out the skillet and repeat with the remaining oil and wings.
- Return all the wings to the skillet.
- Pour the soy sauce evenly over the wings and cook over medium heat 30 seconds.
- Add the Canada Dry Ginger Ale, sriracha and vinegar and bring to a boil, shaking the pan back and forth.
- Cover, reduce the heat to medium low and cook, turning halfway through, until the wings are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Increase the heat to medium and cook, uncovered, until the sauce is thick and shiny, turning the wings carefully to coat, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Transfer to a plater and sprinkle with the cilantro.
