Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup fish sauce
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 8 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 pounds chicken wings, separated into drumettes and flats
  • 1 tablespoon chopped peanuts (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro (optional)

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Small saucepan
  • Parchment paper
  • Whisk or spoon for mixing
  • Silicone brush for glazing

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, combine the fish sauce, brown sugar, crushed garlic, and vegetable oil to create the marinade.
  2. Place the chicken wings in a large zip-top bag or bowl, pour half of the marinade over, and let them marinate in the fridge for 2–3 hours.
  3. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  4. Arrange the wings skin-side up on the baking sheet and bake for about 30 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Simmer the reserved marinade in a small saucepan until it thickens into a glaze.
  6. Brush the cooked wings with the glaze and return them to the oven for another 5 minutes.

Notes

For extra crispy wings, pat them dry before marinating. Feel free to try different garnishes like sesame seeds or parsley. If you have leftovers, they can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for crispiness. Consider doubling the recipe for larger gatherings, as these wings are a crowd favorite!
