Cooking Steps
-
In a small pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water (2¼ cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.
-
Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
- While rice cooks, wash and dry produce.
- Trim and thinly slice cucumber into rounds. Trim and thinly slice radishes into rounds. Roughly chop cilantro. Roughly chop peanuts.
-
In a medium bowl, combine cucumber, radishes, vinegar, 1 tsp sugar (2 tsp for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt and pepper. Taste and add a pinch more sugar if you like a sweeter pickle.
-
Refrigerate until ready to serve, stirring occasionally.
- In a large bowl, combine hoisin sauce, stock concentrate, and as many chili flakes as you like.
-
Heat a ½-inch layer of oil in large, heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat.
-
Pat chicken wings* very dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper.
-
Add cornstarch to a separate large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Working a few wings at a time, toss and press in cornstarch mixture until fully coated. Transfer to a plate.
- When oil is hot enough that a drop of cornstarch sizzles when added, carefully add chicken wings to pan; cook until golden-brown and cooked through, 4-5 minutes per side. (Don’t overcrowd the pan! Fry in batches if needed.) TIP: Be sure to turn the chicken wings in the pan as needed for even cooking.
- Using a slotted spoon or spatula, carefully transfer wings to a paper-towel-lined plate.
- Transfer wings to bowl with sauce. Toss until thoroughly coated.
-
Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings); taste and season with salt and pepper.Divide rice, pickles (draining first), and wings between plates in separate sections. Top wings with cilantro and peanuts. Serve.

Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavor: Many loved the crispy, flavorful wings, though some wanted more sauce to fully coat them. The hoisin glaze was a hit!
- Ease of prep: Frying was messy for some; consider offering baking or air fryer instructions as alternatives for easier cleanup.
- Suggestions: Double the sauce amount to ensure full wing coverage. Consider pairing with a more complementary side dish.
- Portions: Several found 8-10 wings insufficient for a full meal, especially for two adults.
- Cooking method: Some successfully used an air fryer for crispier results; others preferred oven-baking from previous recipes.
Reviews from our home cooks
I really enjoyed this recipe! It was very tasty. My issue is that there are not enough wings per serving. I think we each had five wings. Since they are bone in wings, five wings is not enough. The rice is the filler, but there is too much of a rice to chicken meat ratio. The wings were great! I just want more of them. The pickled veggies are also great! Any time a recipe has radishes, I want there to be more.
Need twice as much sauce to thoroughly coat the wings. Would like instructions for baking or air frying the wings. Offer brown rice as a staple.
Omg!!! Wow!! The best wings we have ever had, and we have had a lot! These were easy to make and delicious!!! Definitely will order this one again.
My husband loved the wings. But I would rather had them cooked in the oven or air fryer. It would be nice for an alternative way to cook them.
We cooked wings in the air fryer and it elevated the meal to most delicious 😋
Flavor and meal itself was pretty flavorful, but would have preferred a boneless chicken instead of wings. That way you can actually eat it with the rice.
The wings were awesome. The pickled veggies were just ok. The serving of rice was too big.
Wings were awesome! Sides not so much. Plain rice and pickled veggies?! Not very family friendly
