Everybody loves a good sticky wing!
These baked Honey Soy wings are a copycat of the popular pre-marinated chicken wings sold at the shops.
All you need is honey, soy, vinegar and garlic.

Serve withfried riceorVermicelli Noodle Saladfor a great easy midweek meal.
For Honey Soy drumsticks and bone in thighs,use this recipe.
For boneless thigh and breast,use this recipe.
Add the word sticky and Im all in!
Its the excess juices that prevents the sauce from reducing down into a syrup to glaze the wings.
Worried about throwing away free flavour?You neednt.
Wings are fatty and juicy.
Theres plenty still inside!
Light soy adds saltiness without staining the wings.
I like to use a combination of both to achieve my desired colour and flavour.
Light soy sauce can be substituted with all purpose soy sauce.
See the recipe notes for adjustment quantity.
Apple cider vinegar To balance out the flavours.
Doesnt make the wings tangy.
Garlic Cant go wrong with a touch of tasty garlicky goodness here!
Oil Just 1/2 a tablespoon to help the wings brown more evenly.
I buy them pre-cut, like pictured below.
I promise its not a hard recipe.
Marinade Mix the ingredients in a bowl then pour it over the wings in a ziplock bag.
A ziplock bag is best because it keeps the sauce snug up around the wings.
If you prefer to use a bowl, toss the wings regularly.
Marinadethe wings for 30 minutes.
Thaw then cook per recipe.
The wings will marinade as the wings freeze, then thaw.
How handy it that!!
Bake for 30 minutes at 200C/400F (180C).
Reservethe marinade we will pour it over later.
Remove wingsfrom the oven.
Drainthe juices and discard.
Pourthe reserved marinade over the wings.

Squidge the wings around to coat in the sauce (it wont stick because its runny).
Rearrangewings as needed if they are cooking unevenly (most ovens have hot spots!).
Garnishwith sesame seeds and green onion, if desired, and prepare yourself forvery sticky fingers!
Youll get sauce smeared around your mouth and youll need plenty of napkins for your hands.
But one thing you wont be able to wipe off is the grin on your face.
