Braised Chicken Wings and Daikon
or
Oven-Safe Skillet 24cm Deep
- Cook
- 33 min
8 chicken wings
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
⅓ daikon, peeled, halved lengthwise and cut into ½” rounds
1 clove garlic, minced
Sauce Mixture
1 teaspoon doubanjiang (spicy fermented bean paste)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons sake
3 tablespoons mirin
¾ cup (180 ml) water
1 tablespoon cornstarch, dissolved in 1 tablespoon of water
½ tablespoon sesame oil
Equipment
Glass or Stainless Steel Lid
Preheat the pan over medium-high heat for about 90 seconds. Add in oil and swirl to coat evenly. Allow smoke to rise from the entire surface of the pan, then bring down to medium heat. Add in the chicken wings and sear for about 2 minutes. Once golden brown, flip and sear the other side for about 1 minute.
Add in daikon and garlic and lightly stir. Place chicken wings on top of the daikon, add in Sauce Mixture and bring to a simmer. Cover with lid and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes, occasionally basting with the sauce.
Turn off the heat. Drizzle cornstarch and lightly stir. Reheat the pan over low heat, bring to a simmer and drizzle sesame oil.
Braising the chicken wings on top of the daikon will allow daikon to soak up the sauce from the pan and the umami from the chicken.
