sesame garlic chicken wings

Last Updated on 2020-02-09 by Linda

As I have said before Kent loves his chicken wings and is always experimenting with new flavours.  He is a hotter then heck preferred wing man.  Me, well I lean more towards a sweet.  Just like my BBQ sauce preference give me sweet vs hot any day. It is the age old Memphis vs Carolina BBQ challenge right? We have merged our two flavours with Slow cooker wings and Dr Pepper in the past.  But today I thought I might try something a little different an Instant Pot Wing recipe. Testing out a new wing for ya, Sesame Garlic Wings, sound like a plan?

Sometimes I do use affiliate links to show you the products I have used or found most helpful in my preparation. 

Instant Pot® and Wings

Nothing beats the convenience of an Instant Pot® for quick, easy, and healthier chicken wings. Once cooked, a quick trip under the broiler is all you need to get that nice crispy finish. Honestly who doesn’t love that thought. Less mess, less fuss and you don’t have to wait all day.  Although all good things come to those who wait.  So waiting isn’t always a bad thing.

Here is a question for you Instant Pot or Slow Cooker or shall I saycrock pot?  I have been last to the IP train sticking with my 30 year old crockpot. And yes it is actually labeled a “Crock Pot”.  Rival actually had the branding of crock pot so that is what I tend to stick with.  Darn SEO and making me doubt my judgement. OK let’s get cooking or IPing shall we.

What you will need for Instant Pot® Sesame garlic Wings

Get your grocery list ready, it is time for a trip to the store. You will need:

4-4½ lbs. chicken wings
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1 c. water
White sesame seeds, for garnish

Sesame Garlic Sauce Ingredients:

¼ c. coconut aminos (or soy sauce if not gluten free)
2 T. sesame oil
3 T. honey, preferably local
1 T. unsalted butter
2 t. fresh ginger, very finely minced
1 t. garlic powder

Walking through the Steps to Tasty Wings

  1. Season wings with salt and black pepper, to taste. Place metal trivet inside Instant Pot® and add one cup of water. Arrange seasoned wings on top of the trivet before securing the cover in place. Switch the vent to “Sealing” and set the “Manual” setting to 8 minutes.
  2. To prepare the sesame garlic sauce, heat the coconut aminos, sesame oil, honey, butter, ginger, and garlic powder in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until butter is melted and the mixture is thoroughly combined. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. When cook time on Instant Pot® is complete, allow pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes, then do a quick release for any remaining steam. Remove lid and transfer wings to a large bowl. Set aside and cool slightly.
  4. Meanwhile, position top oven rack in the top position and pre-heat broiler to high. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire cooling rack on top. Set aside.
  5. Pour 1/3 of the sesame garlic sauce on top of the wings and toss to coat. Transfer the wings to the wire rack on the prepared baking sheet and place under the broiler for 3-4 minutes or until the wings start to get crispy and develop some color. Turn the wings and repeat on the remaining side.
  6. Remove from oven and toss the wings with half of the remaining sesame garlic sauce. Sprinkle with white sesame seeds and serve immediately with the remaining sauce on the side. Enjoy!

Notes

Tip: You can save money by trimming your wings yourself. (See photo for approximate location of where to cut each whole wing). They are a little easier to trim AFTER they’ve been cooked. Immediately freeze the tips to make chicken stock, if desired.
