Sauce:

• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• ¼ cup Gochujang (Korean chili paste) or Sriracha (60 g/ 2.1 oz) - you can make your own
• 2 tbsp coconut aminos or tamari sauce (30 ml)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 230 C/ 450 F. Dry the chicken wings by patting them with a paper towel (to learn how to cut chicken wings, see this recipe, step 1).
2. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat and sear the wings 2-3 minutes per side.
   
3. Transfer to the oven and bake another 20-30 minutes until golden and crisp. (Tip: For extra crispy chicken wings, follow this oven-baked method using baking powder.)
4. Place the sauce ingredients in a small pot and combine over low heat until hot. Toss with the cooked wings.
5. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onion. Serve immediately.
