Grilled Stuffed Thai Chicken Wings

Directions
Ingredients
1 oz
dried glass noodles

2 tsp
coconut oil

4 oz
white button mushrooms, finely chopped

4 oz
ground pork

2 tbsp
oyster sauce

1 tbsp
fish sauce

3 lg
garlic cloves, minced

2 tbsp
finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves and stems

1 tsp
ground white or black pepper

16 lg
chicken wings

Glaze
2 tbsp
soy sauce

1 tbsp
honey

1 tsp
ground white or black pepper

¼ c
coconut oil, melted, or vegetable oil



Called “angel wings” at most Thai restaurants in the States, this dish has been
a favorite among Southeast Asian immigrants in North America and Europe.
Curiously, however, it’s rarely served in Thailand. The restaurant version is
deep-fried, but I’ve always cooked these wings on the grill. They taste better
this way, and they hark back to the more rustic version made with frogs, which
is well loved in rural areas in Cambodia, Thailand, and Laos.

The most challenging part of the recipe is the removal of the wing bones. If
this is your first time, buy a few extra wings as practice pieces. It should
take no more than three or four wings to get you in the groove. Then you’ll
whizz through the wings you need here in a matter of minutes. The recipe
intentionally yields more stuffing than you need because it’s nearly impossible
to be precise unless the wings are all exactly the same size to start and
therefore have the same capacity once they are boned. It’s better to have too
much than too little on hand. Besides, you can stir-fry what’s left over and
have yourself a snack portion of stir-fried glass noodles.

Glass noodles, also called bean thread noodles, are made of mung bean starch.
Once cooked, they become translucent and slightly chewy, adding a nice texture
to this dish. Choose a brand that is made from 100 percent mung bean starch,
with no potato starch mixed in. Kaset is my favorite brand.


DIRECTIONS

 1.  To stuff the chicken wings: In a medium bowl, soak the noodles in warm
     water to cover until softened, about 15 minutes. Drain, squeeze dry, and
     cut into 1⁄2-inch lengths. Return the noodles to the bowl.
 2.  Line a small plate with a paper towel. In a small frying pan, heat the
     coconut oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the mushrooms
     and sauté until they turn soft and release some moisture, about 2 minutes.
     Using a slotted spoon, transfer the mushrooms to the towel-lined plate and
     let the paper towel absorb all the moisture. Transfer the mushrooms to the
     noodle bowl and add the pork, oyster sauce, fish sauce, garlic, cilantro,
     and pepper. Mix until well blended and sticky, then cover and refrigerate.
 3.  Take a chicken wing and cut through the joint connecting the drumette with
     the rest of the wing. Reserve the drumette for another use and put the
     partial wing—the wingette and wing tip—into a large bowl. Repeat with the
     remaining wings.
 4.  Take a partial wing and use your hands to break it in two at the joint
     where the wingette meets the tip, without breaking through the skin. Using
     the tip of a very sharp paring knife, make a cut around the very top part
     where the meat is attached to the joint bone. Carefully pull down the
     wingette meat toward the wing tip to expose the bones that run through the
     wingette, inserting your finger inside the wingette to help loosen things
     up. Pull those bones out while keeping the meat, skin, and shape of the
     wingette intact; discard the bones. Repeat with the remaining partial
     wings. Now you have sixteen boned wings with empty pockets ready to be
     filled.
 5.  Stuff the wings with the pork mixture and close each opening with a wooden
     toothpick. Put in as much of the stuffing as you can to create full
     pockets, but don’t overfill, as the filling will expand a little during
     cooking.
 6.  Bring water in a steamer bottom to a gentle boil. Arrange the wings in a
     single layer in a steamer container, place over (not touching) the gently
     boiling water, cover, and steam until the juices run clear when a wing is
     tested with a knife tip, about 10 minutes. Remove the wings from the
     steamer, blot them dry, and leave them to cool on a sheet pan. Don’t remove
     the toothpicks just yet.
 7.  Prepare a medium-high fire (400° to 450°F) in a charcoal grill using the
     two-zone method.
 8.  Meanwhile, make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce,
     honey, pepper, and oil.
 9.  When the coals are covered with white ash and the grate is hot, place the
     wings on the hold side of the grill, cover, and cook with the vents fully
     opened, removing the lid and brushing the wings with the glaze along the
     way. The wings are already fully cooked, so at this point you only need to
     grill them just until they’re heated through and golden brown, which should
     take anywhere between 10 and 12 minutes.
 10. Transfer the wings to a platter, remove the toothpicks, leave them to cool
     to slightly warmer than room temperature, and serve.
