San Francisco Chicken Wings

Submitted by French Canadian Chef

"They're amazing, baked & delicious! TIP: I made them last night using a 4lbs bag of frozen wings, it worked great. We did one and a half recipe for the sauce, baked for about an hour, remove the extra liquid from the baking dish and boiled it to use as a dipping sauce while the wings were getting a little crispier on the outside. It was a hit!"

I first found this recipe years ago in a cookbook. Through many moves, I've lost the book, but I remember this recipe. So glad to find it again. SUCH a delicious recipe. I usually double the sauce and pour it over rice. I used to cook this all the time for my friends in high school. Can't wait to make it for my husband.
