Instructions
Step 1
In a very large skillet (or in batches), brown the chicken wings over medium heat, turning once until golden, about 6-8 minutes. Add the chilis, zest, cinnamon stick, star anise, sugar, ginger and scallions. Cook over moderately low heat, stirring until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Step 2
Add the mirin, sake, soy sauce, orange juice and oyster sauce and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cover and simmer for 8 minutes. Uncover and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the wings are cooked through and the sauce has reduced to a thick glaze, about 10 to 12 minutes.
Step 3
Discard the chilis, star anise and cinnamon. Transfer the chicken wings to a platter, scatter the remaining tablespoon of scallions on top and serve.
