Swiss wings is a dish with origins disputed between Hong Kong and Guangzhou, China. The dish consists of chicken wings that are similar to soy-sauce chicken wings, only with a sweeter sauce. The wings are usually marinated in a combination of sugar, soy sauce, Chinese wine, and spices such as star anise, garlic, and ginger.

The gleaming sauce clings to the chicken wings, which are poached, then slowly simmered in the sauce until it's reduced to a thick and glossy consistency.
