These are Vietnamese “fish sauce” wings or “Canh ga chien nuoc mam.” A lot of viet restaurants by me have them on their menu but every restaurant has a different recipe. Mine might be unique in that i use equal part soy sauce and fish sauce because i think fish sauce can be overwhelming to most palates.

    Wet-brined in salt water for 6 hours (or overnight) then patted dry right before cooking.

    Batter is corn starch only, double fried.

    Sauce is 1 part sugar, 1 part freshly squeezed lime juice, 0.5 part fish sauce, 0.5 part soy sauce. Make sure to bring to a light boil and then take off heat for 10+ mins so the sauce thickens (be careful of overbubbling because of the sugar in this sauce, keep an eye on it)

    Garnished with fried garlic, bird’s eye chili, and cilantro!
