Vietnamese Chicken Wings With Maggi Sauce

I found this recipe on the cooksrecipes.com website, in their international recipes collection. Maggi sauce should be available in the Asian aisle of most larger grocery stores and international markets. The chicken is moist and flavorful with a tangy glaze with only a hint of heat.
