Step 1
Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.
Step 3
Working in batches if needed, sear wings 4-5 minutes per side until golden and crispy. Transfer to a plate.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add garlic and ginger; cook 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and sesame oil.
Step 5
Return wings to the skillet and toss to coat. Simmer 2-3 minutes until sauce clings and looks glossy.
Step 6
Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with sliced scallions. Serve immediately.
