Sooooo good! I used whole wings and left out the hot peppers. Wings are my favorite chicken part so I like to try different marinades; this one is a keeper. Thank you!

These were so good! I served them to 5 people and it was unanimous. I used small oranges and 1 med. size piece of ginger and did not change anything. I'll definately be making these again! Thanks for sharing.
