Heat 100% sesame oil in a clay pot until fragrant.

Add chicken wings to the pot and sear them quickly.

Pour in dark soy sauce and oyster sauce, stirring to coat the chicken.

Add water to the pot and let it simmer briefly to cook off the alcohol from the shaoxing wine, which will be added later.

Cover the pot with a lid and place it in the oven.

Once cooked, garnish with chopped spring onions before serving.
