Ingredients

  • 500 g chicken mid-wings
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce
  • Black pepper, freshly ground
  • 2 tsp vegetable oil
Lemonade glaze
  • 4-5 cloves garlic
  • 3 cm ginger, sliced into medallions
  • 250 ml lemonade
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp fish sauce
  • 2 tbsp dark soy sauce
  • Steamed white rice, to serve
Marinating time: 30 minutes

Instructions

  1. To a large bowl, add the wings, chopped garlic, fish sauce and ground black pepper. Coat the chicken wings in the marinade, leave for at least 30 minutes, or ideally in the fridge overnight.
  2. Heat a large frypan over high heat. Add the vegetable oil and fry the chicken on each side, until lightly golden brown.
  3. Add garlic, ginger and enough lemonade to just cover the chicken wings, dark soy, fish sauce and sugar. Keep on a high heat and reduce the liquid to a thick syrup, this will take between 15-20 minutes. Serve warm, with a side of steamed rice.
