I have made this recipe many times and my family loves them. Made them the last couple times and they were burnt to a crisp. I baked them for exactly one hour. Any idea what I may be doing wrong?

After preparing this recipe many times and following the directions precisely, I've decided to re-rate it with four stars, rather than five. The sauce tastes great and the ease of preparation is good. However, following the recipe directions as written results in the wings "floating" in so much rendered fat that the marinade is completely diluted and the wings are almost "stewed." Thickening and cramelization just don't occur. So, I now put the wings in the oven for about 15 minutes and at the end of that time period, I drain off all the accumulated fat. I then add the sauce, making sure not to "drown" the wings. I turn the wings as they continue to cook and sometimes even adjust the oven to broil for the last few minutes to get the caramelization and sticky texture I want. I dress the wings with some chopped green onion and a few sesame seeds before serving. -
Delicious! I used a chicken drumlets and chicken legs instead of chicken wings, garlic salt instead of garlic and regular salt and got rave reviews for this simple-to-make chicken dish. My ds couldn't stop eating these! We will definitely be making these again soon. Thanks for posting this delicious keeper recipe. -
Absolutely delicious! I fixed them (this was the first time I fixed chicken wings and with this recipe, it won't be my last!)for Christmas Eve and they were yummy! I love the sauce...full of ingredients I usually have on hand, which is great! My 7-yr old thought they were better as leftovers on her birthday...She was ready for more, but they were gone! A finger-lickin' good recipe that is a definite keeper in this house...Thanks so much T/T for this scrumptious recipe! YUM! -
Loved these. Did the 30 minute precook and drained as others suggested and it worked perfect. The sauce camelizes perfect because there is no fat to dilute. I also removed the skin from the wings after precooking because everyone around here is watching their waistline. Also only used 1/2 cup of honey because that is what I had. Worked fine! -
outstanding! everyone in my family was smacking their lips and licking their fingers. i did add alot more garlic but that was the only change i made to the recipe. i cut off the wing tips and discarded them and then cut the wings into 2 pieces. they took a little longer than 1 hour and i kept turning them every 5-10 minutes after an hour was up to get them really evenly glazed. thank you for the recipe.

Excellent! I did what other reviewers did and cooked for 15 minutes then draining the fat/juice prior to adding the sauce. Also, for the sauce, I subbed 2T of BBQ sauce for the ketchup and added more minced garlic. I lined my pan with tin foil for easy clean-up. There was an abundance of sauce, so I only poured about 1/2 on the wings, I will save the rest for something else. Thanks for posting!

These were really good!! I hate to review a recipe when I changed some of the ingredients, but to one their own right? After reading a lot of the reviews I had discovered that they were really salty and I am not a salt lover. So instead of using soy sauce I used dark soy sauce (which I have recently fallen in love with) it's a lot sweeter and not nearly as salty, I had to go to a specialty Asian market here. It made a phenomenal difference; I also split the honey with brown sugar (half cup of each) and doubled the garlic. They were really easy and really really delicious!! I highly recommend these with the dark soy sauce!! -
I use this recipe all the time now that I found it. We like wings hot so I substitute Habanero Hot Sauce that I canned over the summer for the ketchup in the recipe. It makes a great sweet and spicy combo of flavor. Thanks for the recipe. -
Amazing!!!! We gobbled them down!!! I didn't have any honey on hand so I took the advice of another reviewer & used 1c of brown sugar instead. I also tripled the garlic. I cooked it for 29 min at 370 first flipping half way through. then I applied the sauce and cooked for an additional 40 min. Basting a few times and turning half way through cooking. Served with white rice and green beans.

Made many nice recipes from this site but I just signed up to rate this one! Very very TASTY. I didn't have ketchup and used tomato puree with some tabasco instead. VERY delicious.
