Directions

Step 1

Whisk soy sauce jalapeno peppers and garlic together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add chicken wings and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

Step 2

Remove chicken wings from the marinade and shake off excess. Reserve marinade.

Step 3

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Place chicken wings in the hot oil and pan-fry for 2 minutes per side. Slowly pour in reserved marinade (including garlic) and water. Bring to a boil.

Step 4

Stir in vinegar and cook for 5 minutes. Stir again and season with sugar and salt to taste. Serve hot.
