Sticky Wings

Description:
I am not so fond of fried foods, more so chicken wings (actually, I'd rather have grilled white meat), but when I saw Yummy magazine's March front cover, I simply couldn't resist trying it. The result was so so good that I had to share it with everyone. Enjoy life :) Just remember, cook and eat this in moderation.

*On a side note, I will be tweaking this recipe to come up with a "non-deep-fried" version. I hope I succeed.

Ingredients:
For the coating:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp. five-spice powder
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
cooking oil for deep-frying
12 pcs. chicken wings

For the Honey-Orange Glaze:
1 tbsp. oil
1 tbsp. ginger, sliced very thinly (I made mine bigger; my kids don't like to eat ginger.)
1 tbsp. grated orange zest
1/2 cup honey



Directions:
Mix together flour, five-spice powder, salt and pepper.
Heat oil to about 375F. (I actually used a deep-fry thermometer for this.)
Coat wings well with flour mixture.
Fry wings for 10-15 minutes, or until parts are golden brown. (It really depends on the size of the wings how long it will take to cook.)
Drain on paper towels.

To make the glaze:
Heat oil in sauce pan and saute ginger. Add orange zest and honey.
Let simmer.
Add cooked wings in batches and toss well to coat the wings with the glaze.
