Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and black pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Working in batches if needed, lay wings in the pan without moving for 4 minutes until golden and crispy.

  4. Step 4

    Flip wings and cook 3 more minutes until the second side is golden and skin crackles when you move the pan.

  5. Step 5

    Whisk gochujang, honey, soy sauce, and garlic in a small bowl until smooth. Pour into the skillet and toss wings to coat.

  6. Step 6

    Toss continuously over heat for 2–3 minutes until the glaze thickens and coats each wing. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve hot.
