Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Wings
- 3 pounds whole chicken wings
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tbsp SPG (salt, pepper, garlic seasoning)
- 2 tbsp Korean BBQ rub
- Toasted white sesame seeds for garnish
Vegetable Fried Rice
- 1 large onion, diced
- 1 pack frozen peas and carrots
- 4 cups cooked day-old rice
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- ½ cup green onions, sliced
- ½ cup Hot & Spicy Bachan’s (Korean fermented soybean paste)
Eggs
- 4 large eggs
Bachan’s Mayo Sauce
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup water
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tsp sugar
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
Instructions
- Preheat the griddle: Set your griddle to medium-high heat to ensure it’s hot enough for cooking the wings and vegetables evenly.
- Prepare the wings: Cut the whole chicken wings at the knuckles, separating the drumettes and flats for even cooking.
- Season the wings: Place the wings in a bowl, drizzle with avocado oil, and toss to coat. Sprinkle with SPG seasoning and Korean BBQ rub, ensuring even coverage.
- Cook the wings: Arrange the wings flat on the hot griddle. Cook, flipping every 3 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 185°F, ensuring crispy and fully cooked wings.
- Sauté vegetables: While wings cook, add diced onions, frozen peas, and carrots to the griddle. Cook for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender.
- Make the fried rice: Add butter, green onions, and cooked rice to the vegetables on the griddle. Drizzle Hot & Spicy Bachan’s on top and mix everything thoroughly to combine flavors.
- Cook scrambled eggs: Crack the eggs directly onto the griddle and scramble them. Once cooked, incorporate the scrambled eggs into the fried rice mixture.
- Caramelize wings with sauce: Just before the wings finish cooking, drizzle more Bachan’s sauce over them and mix to help the sauce caramelize, adding an extra burst of flavor.
- Serve: Plate the wings alongside a generous serving of fried rice centered on the plate. Garnish with toasted white sesame seeds and enjoy your flavorful meal!
Notes
- Using day-old rice helps prevent clumping and creates better-textured fried rice.
- Ensure the griddle is properly preheated for even cooking and to get crispy skin on the wings.
- Monitor internal temperature of wings carefully to avoid under or overcooking; 185°F ensures tender, fully cooked meat.
- The Hot & Spicy Bachan’s sauce adds authentic Korean flavor – adjust quantity to your spice preference.
- Feel free to substitute avocado oil with another high smoke point oil if needed (e.g., canola or vegetable oil).
