Nyob Zoo!

I wanted to share with you my updated stuffed chicken wings recipe. It’s stuffed with bean thread noodles, chicken, mushroom, green onion, carrots, and seasoned just right. The wings are lightly coated in tapioca starch and then deep fried. Stuffed chicken wings are definitely a labor of love type dish since deboning chicken wings takes time. However, it’s so worth it because of how good it is! So I hope you can give this a try and happy cooking!

Main Ingredients

Chicken Wings: Use the whole chicken wing! It’ll be easier to stuff and you get more meat! Learn how to debone the wings by watching this video https://youtu.be/-8uanGY5St0?si=7CwYZQTqs9mfenY8Deboned: I like to use kitchen shears for safety and ease. You can use a paring knife but it’s quite risky if the chicken slides off. The shears is easier to work withMarinade the chicken for extras flavor before stuffing
Make the filling: It consist of bean thread noodles, ground chicken thigh, green onions, shredded carrots, wood ear mushrooms, and seasonings Stuff the chicken wings and coat it in tapioca starch before frying.
Fry in neutral oil for at least 8-10 minutes. Drain well, let it cool before enjoying.Enjoy while it’s still crispy. Eat it as is or with a side of sweet chili sauce.

Enjoy!

For the filling

Instructions

 

FOR THE CHICKEN WINGS

• Debone the chicken wings. Watch the deboning video to see how it's done. Either use a knife or kitchen scissor to debone. I like kitchen scissors since it's safer and faster.
• Marinade the boneless chicken wings and let it sit for at least 1 hr in room temp or overnight in the fridge.

FOR THE FILLING/STUFFING

• Make sure to soak any dried items you're using (wood ear mushrooms and bean thread noodles). Rinse them well and chop them for easier mixing and filling. Then add everything for the filling in a bowl and mix well.
• Stuff the marinaded chicken wings until it is slightly pack. Don't fill it too much or else they will burst while cooking since they do expand when they cook.
• Add tapioca starch into a bowl and dip each stuffed chicken wings into the starch until it's fully coated. Place each coated wings onto a wire rack. Once each wings are coated, let it sit for at least 5 minutes to allow the starch to absorb the chicken moisture and coat on before frying.

TO DEEP FRY

• In a good pan, heat enough oil to deep fry to 350'F. Add in the chicken wings (I like to fry in two batches so I don't overcrowd the pan). Cook for at least 8-10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165'F or higher. Once cooked, place into a colander to drain off access oil. Let it cool for at least 5 minutes before consuming. Enjoy as is or dip it in some sweet chili sauce. You can eat this with rice too. This chicken is quite flavorful so I don't really care to dip it in chili sauce but feel free to if you like 🙂

TO COOK IN THE OVEN

• You can cook the chicken in the oven. HOWEVER, you don't need to coat it in tapioca starch. Once you stuff it, just put it on a cooking rack over a lined pan and bake it. Cook in preheated 400' F oven for 30 minutes. Rotate to the other side, and cook for another 20 minutes or so or until it reaches your desire crispness. For a darker/crisper skin, you can set your oven to broil @450'F for 3-4 minutes or just until it reaches your desire crispness/color.
