- 3 lb chicken wingettes or chicken wings
- 1 ½ tbsp sesame seeds, lightly toasted

Directions
- Preheat and Prep: Position the oven rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 425°F. Line a large, shallow baking pan (17 by 12 inches) with foil and lightly oil the foil.

- Marinate the Wings: Add the chicken wingettes to the bowl with the sauce, ensuring they are well coated.
- Bake the Wings: Arrange the wingettes in a single layer in the prepared baking pan. Roast in the oven, turning once, until fully cooked, about 35 minutes.
- Finish and Serve: Transfer the cooked wingettes to a large serving bowl. Toss them with the toasted sesame seeds and finely chopped scallion. Serve immediately and enjoy your sticky sesame chicken wings!
