Separate the drummettes from the wingette and tips of your chicken wings. Set aside.
In a bowl, add the ginger, Knorr Liquid Seasoning, and black pepper and mix well. Pour this marinade on top of the chicken wings to infuse with flavors from the inside out. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
In a shallow bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and the cornstarch. Dredge your marinated wings in this mixture. Place the wings inside the chiller as you prepare the sauce.
Make sauce: In a saucepan, mix garlic, oyster sauce, Knorr Liquid Seasoning, chili sauce, white sugar, and sesame oil. Place on medium heat and bring it up to a simmer. Add your prepared cornstarch slurry to the mix and bring to a boil while you mix continuously.
Set aside the sauce and grab your chicken wings from the chiller. Let rest at room temperature for a few minutes.
Heat oil in a large saucepan or deep fryer to 375F. Gently slide the chicken wings inside, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook until the chicken wings are golden brown or until the juices run clear.
Place your chicken wings on a wire rack to get rid of excess oil.
Place your chicken wings in a bowl. Drizzle the sauce in and toss the chicken to coat.
