Ingredients

2lbs chicken wings
4tablespoons soy sauce
4tablespoons molasses
1teaspoon garlic powderUse more if you’d like. This is what I found good.
1teaspoon ground gingeroptional

Instructions

Preparing the wings

Mix the molasses, soy sauce and garlic powder.
Put the chicken wings into a zipper bag and pour the mixture over. Seal the bag, and toss to coat.
Allow the wings to marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. You can allow them to marinate overnight if you would like, but it won’t add much more flavour.

Baking the wings

Pre-heat oven to 425°F.
Place a wire rack on a foil lined baking sheet.
Lay the wings out across the wire rack. Do not stack the wings, and if possible, try to leave a bit of space between them. Discard the left over marinade.
Place the wings in the oven, and cook for 45 to 50 minutes, turning over after 25 minutes. If there is too much smoke, or they are turning too dark, turn the oven down.
After 45 minutes of cooking, remove them from the oven, and serve. They will be hot, so be careful.

Recipe Notes

You can deep fry the wings if you would like, but because of the wet marinade, they won’t be as crispy as a dry-rubbed wing, so I decided to bake them.
