Sorry to say these were nothing special. A lot of liquid in the pan made the wings kind of wet, where we would've preferred them crispier. The orange marinade was OK.

A nice wing recipe. I like the orange flavor. I cut off the tips and just used the two drummets on each wing. I halved the cayenne pepper I should have used the whole amount. It was not spicy at all. I was in a hurry so marinated for 40 minutes cooked at 375 and basted with the sauce every 15 minutes which just turned out to be before I put in and then 1 more time before I was out of sauce.

The bomb! Whoa - had these for an appy party - they were gone in a flash! Made totally as directed and they were so good. Loved the citrus flavor. Thanks so much Pets. Made for Cook-a-thon for Pets'R'us.

Outstanding flavor in these wings. I used breast fillet strips and let marinate for 2 days before I used them. The orange flavor had melded very well in the chicken, not overpowering, just a nice light orange flavor, all the flavors went well together. Since I had marinated for so long I discarded the marinade. Baked for 20 minutes at 425 degree oven. Served with seasoned roasted potato wedges and roasted asparagus. A VERY tasty supper! This was so easy to make and I will be making this one again. Thank you so much for posting.

These wings are the bomb!! Seriously, these are good and hot, but not too hot. These will be my hot wings recipe from now on!! The flavor is so much better with the orange and the heat! I did not marinate; I just cooked 1 lb. (instead of 2) in the marinade, stirring midway through. (I was too hungry to wait and I did not want to throw away the sauce, I wanted to eat it) They turned out great this way. The combination of these ingredients is out of this world! Next time, I will up the heat to 450 because mine took longer to cook at 350. Thank you for such a great recipe!
