Cola Chicken Wings

 I noticed on a lot of oriental U tube cooking shows that they use a bottle of Coke or cola in meat or chicken wings when making them in a wok.  I looked up cola wing recipes and tried one tonight because they looked good!  I combined a couple of recipes and we both liked them for a light supper.  Here's what I did:

COLA WINGS:

2 pounds chicken wings (fresh)

2 Tablespoons vegetable oil.  I think peanut oil would be fine too

3 slices ginger  (I had ginger paste in the tube and just added that instead)

1 cup of cola (not diet, you need the sugar to get it to caramelize)

3 Tablespoons of soy sauce.  

salt to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:

Fill a wok half full of water and bring to a boil.  Add wings that you have washed well and disjointed into two parts and let boil for 5 minutes.  (this ensures they are thoroughly cooked later on and gets rid of some of the fat).  Then remove them from the water onto a plate, draining the water and rinsing the wok well.  Place the wok back on a high heat burner and add the oil and ginger.  Place wings in a single layer into wok and brown each side well.  Then add the soy sauce and cola (I used Coke) in.  turn down heat a little to a low boil.  cook uncovered until the sauce turns thick and the wings are cooked well.  add a little salt to taste if desired and sprinkle with chopped green onions and seasame seeds to serve.
