Chicken wings stuffed with meat is a dish
that I really like. This was also a very popular appetizer dish of the
"Vietnam Little Home restaurant", which was my family’s restaurant
in
Ingredients:
10 chicken wings (skin on, washed, and
deboned)
The fillings:
½ lb. of ground turkey, chicken, or pork
2 oz. of glass noodles, soaked for 15 minutes
4 wood ear mushrooms, soaked for 15 minutes
1 carrot, finely diced (about 1 cup)
1 cup cabbage, finely diced
1/2 white onion, diced
2 garlic cloves,, minced
Seasoning:
1 tsp. salt, sugar, soy sauce, oyster sauce,
black pepper, and fish sauce
For the breading:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup rice flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
Salt, pepper, garlic powder, chili powder,
and onion powder to taste
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
For the sauce:
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 shallots, minced
1/4 cup honey or sugar
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup ketchup
1/2 cup water
2 tbs oyster sauce
Others:
2 cups of vegetable oil for deep frying
Directions:
To make the fillings:
Chop the glass noodles and wood ear mushrooms
after soaking them. In a medium bowl, combine all the filling ingredients and
mix well . Adjust the seasonings for your taste. I use almost 1 tsp for each.
Stuff the filling inside each wing.
Bring a steamer to boil and steam the wings
for 20 minutes. Afterwards, let wings cool completely.
While the wings are cooling, make the breading.
In one bowl, combine the flours and
cornstarch together with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, chili powder, onion
powder.
Using another bowl, whisk to combine the eggs
and milk.
After the wings are cooled off, roll each wing twice: first in the egg-milk mixture and then the flour mixture. Repeat the process until all the wings are well coated with the flour.
Bring the oil to 375° and fry the wings until
golden brown.
Serve with the dipping sauce.
To make the sauce:
In a sauté pan, add 1/4 cup oil and fry the
garlic and shallots until fragrant. Add vinegar, hoisin sauce, ketchup. oyster
sauce, and water. Bring to boil . Adjust the seasoning with honey or sugar to
suit your taste. Cook the sauce for 10 minutes. When serving, add hot fresh
chili or Sriracha hot sauce.
