# How to Make Cola Chicken Wings
Estimated Cooking Difficulty: ★★★
## Essential Ingredients and Tools
* Chicken mid-joint wings
* Cola
* White sugar
* Light soy sauce
* Salt
* Ginger
* Cooking wine or beer
* Scallions
## Measurements
For 1 serving:
* 10 to 12 chicken mid-joint wings
* 500 ml of cola
* 10 g of white sugar
* 15 g of light soy sauce
* 3 g of dark soy sauce
* 2 g of salt
* 2 slices of ginger
* 20 ml of cooking wine
* Scallions tied into a knot
## Instructions
* Place the chicken wings in a pot and cover with cold water. Add 1 slice of ginger and 10 to 20 ml of cooking wine. Bring to a boil over high heat (approximately 2 minutes), then skim off the foam and drain the water.
* This step is for frozen or chilled chicken wings. If using freshly bought wings, you can skip this and directly score them with a knife and marinate them with light soy sauce.
* Remove the chicken wings. You can score both sides of each wing with a knife. Marinate the wings with about 10 g of light soy sauce for 10 minutes (ensure the soy sauce fully coats the surface of the wings for flavor absorption).
* Heat a small amount of oil in the pot over low heat. First, stir-fry the remaining ginger slices until fragrant, then add the marinated chicken wings. Fry the wings until golden brown, flipping them over (until both sides are golden). Use a spatula to turn the wings a few times, stirring them together with the ginger slices for 4 to 5 times (this prevents the wings and ginger from sticking together).
* Once the wings are golden, pour in the cola to cover the wings. Bring the cola to a boil over high heat, then skim off any black foam (which includes blood residues). At this point, add the scallion knot.
* Seasoning: Add 2 g of salt, 10 g of white sugar, and 3 g of light soy sauce to taste (you can add a small amount of dark soy sauce, about 3 g, for color).
* When the scallion knot turns yellow, remove it along with the ginger slices. Continue to simmer the cola chicken wings over medium-low heat.
* When the sauce thickens and becomes syrupy, reduce the heat to low to ensure the sauce clings firmly to the wings. Remove from heat and plate.
## Additional Tips
* Adding ginger and stir-frying it until fragrant helps prevent the chicken wings from sticking to the pot.
* When reducing the sauce at the end, do not use high heat to avoid a bitter taste.
* This dish is on the sweeter side.
