I tweaked the recipe a little.. I added 1 cup water to half cup soy sauce.. replaced brown sugar with three tbs of pure honey.. used 600 grams of chicken and it turns out great~~~ the soy sauce in Taiwan is too saltish, thus the 1 cup to half portion.. 🙂

You can cook them over the stove. Turn on medium high fire, add sesame oil, garlic and ginger. Stir fry them a little bit. Add chicken wings and the sauce. Let it cook until it’s boiling. Then, turn the fire to small and simmer for 15-20 mins depending on the size of the chicken wings or legs. (Try to flip them while simmering.)
