The recipe for today is unusual for one of Grandma’s recipes.
Grandma and Grandpa were not really snack type people.
They were Scandinavian farmers so they had a standard 3:00 pm coffee every afternoon, but this was usually coffee with a sweet – not savory snack – unless there was the occasional cracker.
There weren’t many snack/appetizer/party type recipes in the bunch.
Marinated Chicken Wings would be a good one for a New Year’s party.
These aren’t spicy wings – more of a teriyaki type wing.
And soooo good – as you can see by the “good” connotation!
Here is the recipe as I made it:
Marinated Chicken Wings
Mix in a zipper type bag:
1/2 cup soy sauce
3 Tablespoons white sugar
3 Tablespoons brown sugar
3 Tablespoons vinegar (I used apple cider vinegar)
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 clove minced garlic
Add 1 package of chicken wings and marinate overnight.
Bake 1 hour at 350 degrees.
I put the bag into a bowl in the refrigerator just in case of a leak.
The marinade isn’t thick – maybe it wont do much?
Wrong! The wings get sticky and sweet . . .
and perfect and delicious.
Try this one for your next party – New Year’s or otherwise.
You won’t be sorry.
So good.
