Steps to make Coke Chicken Wings
1. Wash the chicken wings and cut them into two pieces on opposite sides for easy tasting.
2. Pour cold water into the pot, put the chicken wings into the pot, add 3 slices of ginger, a pinch of pepper and a spoonful of cooking wine. Cover the pot, bring to a boil over high heat, cook for another 2 minutes, and pour out. Sichuan peppercorns, ginger, and cooking wine are all used to remove the fishy smell. If so, put one or two in there.
3. Take out the soaked chicken wings, wash them with hot water, and then use kitchen paper to absorb the water. If the blanched meat needs to be washed before cooking, remember to use hot water, not cold water, so as not to tighten the texture and harden it when it is cold. Because it will be fried in a fryer later, it is best to use kitchen paper to absorb the water here. , otherwise it will explode and splash oil when fried in a deep fryer
4. Heat the pot and add a little base oil. When the oil is 50% hot, place the chicken wings flat into the pan and fry until the bottom is golden brown.
5. After one side is browned, turn it over and fry the other side until both sides are golden.
6. After frying both sides, add the ginger slices, then add: 1 spoon of cooking wine, 2 spoons of light soy sauce, half a spoon of dark soy sauce, stir-fry until coloured.
7. Add a can of cola, submerge the chicken wings, cook on high heat for 2 minutes, then turn to medium heat and cook for 15 minutes.
8. After about 15 minutes, it will be cooked. At this time, there is still about half of the soup left. Taste for saltiness and evaluate whether you need to add more salt based on your taste. Then add chicken essence, turn to high heat to reduce the juice, and get the consistency you like.
When the soup is boiling over high heat, be sure to use a spatula and keep turning the soup, otherwise it will easily become mushy or stick to the pan
