Oven Fried Crispy Asian Style Chicken Wings

Ingredients

• For the Chicken:
• 2 1/2 pounds chicken wings, separated at the joints
• 1/4 c flour
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
• 
  
• For the Sauce:
• 1 cup fresh orange juice
• 1/2 cup pineapple juice
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup mirin
• 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoons orange zest
• 1 tablespoons minced garlic
• 1 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
• 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
• 1 tablespoons minced parsley

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with 1-inch sides with aluminum foil. Be sure wings are thawed and dry them well with paper towels.
2. Combine flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt & pepper in a plastic bag. Shake to mix ingredients and add wings. Shake again
3. Spread the seasoned wings on the baking sheet in a single layer so the wings are not touching. Bake until browned, rotating pan half-way through for 30 minutes
4. While the wings are baking, in a large skillet, combine the remaining ingredients set over medium-high heat, except the sesame seeds and parsley. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved and the liquid has reduced to a syrup, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm until ready to use.
5. Remove the wings from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
6. Place the wings in a large bowl. Drizzle half the prepared sauce over the wings, reserving the other half, tossing to coat well. Sprinkle half of the sesame seeds over the wings and toss again. Place a wire cooling rack inside a large baking sheet lined with aluminum foil and arrange the coated wings on top of the rack. Return the pan to the oven and bake an additional 15 to 20 minutes, or until cooked through and crispy.
7. Arrange the wings on a large serving platter and top with parsley and remaining sesame seeds. Serve immediately with the remaining sauce passed on the side for dipping.
