Leyley's Spicy Chicken Adobo Wings

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the wings and boil for 5 to 8 minutes. Drain in a colander and run under warm water. Return to the dry pot and add the vinegar water bay leaves peppercorns onion and jalapenos. Simmer over low heat for 20 minutes.

Season the chicken with soy sauce and simmer for another 10 to 15 minutes or until the sauce has reduced by 1/2. Remove the wings to a colander and set aside. Add a few garlic cloves to the liquid in the pan and simmer until the sauce has a syrupy consistency and the jalapenos have burst open releasing all of their seeds into the reduction.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken wings and the remaining garlic. Cook and stir until the garlic is tender and the wings have browned about 10 minutes. Return wings to the sauce to coat before serving.
