| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Cut chicken wings into three pieces at the joint sections, discarding the tips. |
| 2 | In a bowl, combine dark soy sauce, dry sherry, minced ginger, minced garlic, and chicken wings. Allow the wings to marinate for several hours in the refrigerator. |
| 3 | Remove the wings from the marinade, setting the marinade aside for later use. |
| 4 | Heat vegetable oil in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat. |
| 5 | Dredge the marinated wings in cornstarch, shaking off any excess. |
| 6 | Carefully add the wings to the hot skillet, making sure not to overcrowd them. Cook until golden brown on all sides, then remove from the skillet. You may need to cook the wings in batches. |
| 7 | Drain excess oil from the skillet, then add the reserved marinade and chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer. |
| 8 | Return the cooked wings to the skillet, coating them evenly with the sauce. Cover the skillet and allow the wings to simmer for 5-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. |
| 9 | Once cooked, transfer the chicken wings to a serving platter. Garnish with slivers of fresh ginger and chopped scallions for an extra burst of flavor. |
