Yen Can Cook ~ Maple Syrup Miso Chicken Wings
Maple syrup is a syrup usually made from the xylem sap of sugar maple, red maple, or black maple trees. Canada is the world’s top producer of maple syrup and it can safely be considered the national food. It is also no surprise that maple syrup is ranked the number one Canadian souvenir. Hubby received a bottle of maple syrup in a cute maple leaf shape from his ex-colleague last year and it was still sitting in my cabinet untouched until I stumbled upon this recipe in one of the Youtube channels that I follow.
Ingredients (Serve: 2-3)
8 chicken wings (wingettes & drumettes)
30g miso
20ml mirin
10ml sake
25ml water
15g maple syrup
Cooking oil
White sesame for garnishing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Step 1: Marinate the chicken wings with miso, sake, mirin and 5g maple syrup for at least 2 hours (preferably overnight) in the fridge.
Step 2: Heat up cooking oil in a pan and pan fry both sides of the chicken wings (Step 1) with lid on for 1-2 minutes/until golden brown.
Note: Bring the chicken wings to room temperature before cooking.

Golden brown chicken wings! I have maple syrup at home so I can try this. I have been keeping my maple syrup because so sayang to use. LOL!
PH, but to my surprise I found that maple syrup does have a shelf life once opened and it can grow mold. So please check yours before using if it was opend.
Waaaah! The Canadian maple syrup is definitely the best. Better than using ordinary caramel for the chicken wings. Yums!!!!
TM, some said a bit “sayang” to use it for cooking, LOL
When you get good maple syrup like that, the best way would be to eat it in its original form….drizzled over french toast & pancakes…yums! 😉
Kris, both Sam and hubby not a fan of maple syrup, so although I’ve cooked/bought French toast, pancakes & waffle, it still cannot finish. >_<
Kasi 1/2 dozen & 1 beer pls.
KY, IKR!! I’ll cook this again and pair with beer 😛
