I forgot to add wine to picture

It’s Super Bowl Sunday and I already made the ribs I was going to make hot wings or maybe five spice wings but then I remembered something I have not made in about 13 years since Yale Drive – Mut Jup Mun Gai Yik or Honey Soy Braised Chicken wings. Hey it is Chinese New Year after all. I used to love cooking Asian and have this great book  The complete Asian Cookbook its pages well my favorites all stained with this or that sauce. All I can say is good choices……we could not wait even had some of the stuffed eggplant that Lyn made double mmmm.

• 2 tablespoon peanut oil (or cooking oil)
• 1/3 cup  dark soy sauce
• 2 tablespoon honey

How

Cut each chicken wing into 3 pieces. Discard wing tips or reserve for stock.

Heat oil in wok or skillet and fry joints on high heat for 3-4 minutes, or until browned.

Add soy, honey, wine or sherry, garlic and ginger, stir well.

Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer about 30 minutes or until tender.

Stir frequently towards end of cooking and make sure the sweet does not burn.

Serve warm or room temperature
