A few nights ago, I was craving some hot wings but since my son is just a baby, I needed another chicken recipe that wasn't spicy. I remembered my mom making some sweet chicken wings when I was younger. This recipe was pretty similar! I added some sesame seeds on to the wings. My son seemed to really like them. I tried some too and they were pretty similar to what my mom's. I used your sauce combo...but I used a different way of making the wings. Instead of putting the wings in lukewarm water, I boiled water and cooked them for 10-12 minutes. I then coated them lightly in flour and put it in a deep frier, then tossed the chicken and sauce together. YUM! =)
