How to cook deliciously - Honey-Cilantro Wings with Red Cabbage Slaw

1. Stage

Pour enough oil into a deep large pot to reach 4 inches high, then heat oil to 350°. Rinse and dry chicken and season with salt and pepper, then toss with cornstarch. Shake off excess cornstarch and transfer to a large bowl.

2. Stage

Set a cooling rack over a baking sheet lined with paper towels. When oil has come to temperature, add chicken in batches using a slotted spoon. (Do not overcrowd the pot or the oil temperature will drop.) Fry chicken until golden and crispy, 10 minutes. Continue cooking chicken in batches, making sure temperature remains at 350°, then drain chicken on cooling rack and set aside.

3. Stage

Meanwhile, while chicken is frying, whisk together vinegar, 1 tablespoon honey and sesame oil in a large mixing bowl and season with salt. Toss together with cabbage, carrots, and cilantro, then transfer slaw to a large serving platter with chicken.

4. Stage

In a small bowl, mix together garlic, ginger, remaining 3 tablespoons honey and soy sauce. Microwave 2 minutes, then drizzle all over chicken and use remaining sauce for dipping.

5. Stage

Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
