Braised Soy Sauce Chicken Wings & Potato 土豆燒雞翅
This yummilicious dish made with two of my favorite things - chicken wings and potatoes. The first time I had this Braised Soy Sauce Chicken Wings & Potato, or 薯仔炆雞翼, I did a flip and a half. Wow! Where had this dish been all my life?! All the things that I loved about chicken wings: tender, deliciously meaty, yummy browned skin and all the things I loved about potatoes: melty, starchy, potato-y goodness. All in one humble yet spectacular dish!The great thing when you make Braised Soy Sauce Chicken Wings & Potato is that it's an easy dish that always comes out great. Once the chicken wings are browned you just add the water and sauce ingredients and let it bubble away until meltingly tender and deliciously saucy. The secret of this dish is the sauce, a luscious meat flavored soy sauce thickened with half melted potatoes. Just try it and see if you and yours don't end up licking the plate!
