Beijing Wings

These delicious and easy wings came from the "Cook This, Not That" book that we love! A great alternative to fried and slathered wings (which are good on occasion!)

1/2 c low sodium soy sauce
1/4 c brown sugar
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger (I have used fresh and dried in the past)
2 lbs chicken wings
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp Sriracha (could use hot sauce)
Juixe of 1/2 lime

Combine the soy sauce, half the brown sugar, garlic and ginger in a bag. Add the wings and coat. Refrigerate for at least one hour.

Preheat the oven to 450. Remove wings from the bag and lay out on a rimmed baking sheet with lightly oiled tin foil. Roast for 15 minutes until meat is firm and cooked through.

Heat the butter, sriracha, remaining brown sugar, and lime juice in a nonstick skillet. When the butter melts, add the wings and saute for 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce clings tightly to the chicken.

Enjoy!
