Honey Garlic Chicken Wings

Honey Garlic Chicken Wings

5 teaspoons brown sugar
1 cup water
3 Tablespoons soy sauce
1 Tablespoon honey
2 Tablespoon minced garlic
15 chicken wings

Pre-cook your chicken wings - single layer in a covered dish in the oven at 350 F for 45 minutes or so.

Pre-heat frying pan to medium heat.

Mix brown sugar, water, soy sauce, honey and minced garlic in a sauce pan and bring to a boil. 

Put the chicken wings in the frying pan (one layer) and pour the sauce over them.  Cook uncovered for 15 minutes on medium heat.  Turn the chicken and cook another 15 minutes.  The wings will turn dark and the sauce will thicken.  The sauce will darken a lot, but don't let it burn.

Notes:  This recipe is not particularly diet friendly, but you can tweak it a little to make it healthier.  Try using boneless skinless chicken breast tenders instead of wings.  You can also use low sodium soy sauce.  I've made this recipe with 2 Tablespoons of honey and no brown sugar and they turned out tasty.  You can also add a little heat by splashing some chili sauce into the sauce mix.
