Ingredients
Scale
2 pounds chicken wings
1 cup Coca Cola
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup brown sugar
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
In a large bowl, combine the Coca Cola, soy sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, minced garlic, ground ginger, black pepper, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
Add the chicken wings to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight.
Remove the wings from the marinade and let any excess liquid drip off. Reserve the marinade for later.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the wings in batches, cooking for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Transfer the browned wings to the prepared baking sheet.
In a small saucepan, bring the reserved marinade to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes until slightly thickened.
Brush the thickened marinade over the wings. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning once halfway through.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For extra heat, add a teaspoon of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
Try using different types of soda, like root beer or ginger ale, for a unique flavor twist.
