Buffalo Wild Wings Asian Zing Sauce Recipe

Here's one of our latest favorite recipes. When Chris was at training in St Louis, he discovered Buffalo Wild Wings and RAVED about their Asian Zing wings. He was pretty stoked when I found a recipe online for it. When we were down in Texas, I went to Buffalo Wild Wings so I could try them for myself. They are delicious! And, truth be told, I like this recipe even better than the original!

1 TBSP cornstarch
4 tsp rice wine vinegar
1/2 cup corn syrup
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup chili-garlic sauce (it is REALLY hot with this much sauce!!! I like it, but if you don't like heat, maybe start with 1 TBSP and add to it???)
1 TBSP soy sauce
1 tsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp garlic, minced (I used garlic powder)

Dissolve corn starch in rice wine vinegar in a small bowl and set aside.

In a small saucepan combine remaining ingredients.

Add cornstarch and rice wine vinegar mixture and stir well.

Heat mixture on medium heat, stirring often until sauce reaches a boil and thickens.

Remove from heat, allow it to cool. Yield: 3/4 cup.

I mix it with cooked "boneless wings" (they're really just breaded chicken tenders). SO GOOD!!! Serve it with ranch.

Thank you for posting, it turned out awesome. My family tends to lean towards spicier things so I am going to try "kicking it up a notch". IE Cayenne pepper or Texas Pete's pepper juice. Shooting for the eye sweats.
