Delicious! I LOVED these wings! The wing is probably my favorite piece of the chicken. Sauced up like this with Soy, and Sweet-Chili, they are delectable! It is so, so easy to do!I cut the recipe down, because with only two of us, and this being only part of a complete Chinese meal that I was preparing, 5 lbs, would have been much more than I needed. I did have a problem with the soy sauce trying to "burn out" of the pan on me. This was only because by cutting down all the ingredients, I had too little liquid for the size pan I used. It was very clearly my own fault. The wings, however still came out perfect! My advise to anyone who was going to half the recipe as I did, would be to be sure and use a small enough baking pan for how many wings you have. Also, I will try covering the pan with foil during part of the time that the wings cook in the soy sauce.I would recommend this recipe to eveyone. And,it WILL be a REGULAR around here!!Thanks Ms. Pia, this is a definate keeper! -
Go ahead and get a washcloth....your gonna need it! These are sticky and yummy. Very different from the regular wings I make for ball games. I made half the recipe, and cut the cooking time a bit to try and keep these from burning. These are delicious as posted, but I do recommend you line your cooking pan with foil (at least for the 2nd half of the cooking) for easier cleanup. I'm sure we'll enjoy these again....I'd like to try this with drumsticks or thighs. -
MsPia, Thank you for sharing your Nana's chicken wings recipes. It is delicious. I was so tired today coming home from work and I didn't know what to do with the drumsticks I bought. So I used this recipe. I followed the recipe exactly and it is so easy but so good. -
Gave your recipe a try on my Garden club gals potluck and it was a well liked by all. I'm a big fan of chili sauce so new I would love this simple, but great recipe. Thank you MsPia for sharing. Lady Laura -

I'm lucky to have had two amazing grandmothers with a passion for cooking.My Nona was from the north of Italy and Lolo was from Spain. Lolo used to make pickle fish. You would think that is a kids worst nightmare, but it was fabulous. I would kill for that recipe.My mother was also a wonderful cook. I grew up eating the most amazing food; her lasagna and Bolognese sauce are out of this world.
I am originally from Argentina and living in Colorado for the past 25 years. As you can imagine, I love to cook, eat and entertain. I read cookbooks like novels.
There is nothing that I enjoy more than traveling. I love the challenge of a new culture and a foreign language. Of course all my traveling is culinary oriented. Eventually I would love to move to Italy. Italians, in my opinion, have the perfect life style; Hard work in the morning, good food for lunch, nice siesta and out for a "giro" (go for a round) in the afternoons to visit with your friends over a cup of coffee.
My daughter is a great baker; she has a natural talent for it. We can make the exact same recipe and hers ALWAYS tastes much better.
My favorite products are seasonal, organic and fresh; I stay away from cans and pre-mixed stuff. I'm a proud member of the Slow Food movement. www.slowfood.com
