Crispy Japanese Soy Chicken Wings

First, preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius.

Next, create a small container and crack an egg into it. In another shallow dish, place some flour.

Then, take your chicken wings and cut them in half. Dip each wing piece into the egg mixture, making sure to coat it evenly, and then roll it in flour to cover completely.

After that, heat a substantial amount of butter in a large and deep skillet over the medium-high heat setting. Fry the coated chicken wings in hot butter until they are a deep brown color on both sides. Transfer them to a shallow roasting pan.

Subsequently, prepare the sauce by mixing together sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, water, salt, and garlic powder in a medium-sized bowl until the ingredients are well combined. Pour this sauce over the wings.

Finally, bake the chicken wings in the preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes, frequently basting them with the sauce in the roasting pan. To ensure the wings are cooked properly, insert an instant-read thermometer into the centers of the wings near the bone and check that it reads 165 degrees Fahrenheit or 74 degrees Celsius.
