This tasty chicken wings recipe has a mildly spicy Asian accent. Serve them at your game-time gathering and there will be “high fives” all around.

Why try? This makes a nice alternative to the usual Buffalo Wings.

Foodie Byte: These are really best when baked until crispy.

Ingredients

• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 green onions, chopped
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 tablespoon Chinese five-spice powder
• 2 tablespoons fish sauce
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
• Salt to taste (optional)
• 16 chicken wings
• 2 limes, quartered

Preparation

1. Whisk together garlic, green onion, sugar, five-spice powder, fish sauce, soy sauce, chili sauce, and salt in a bowl.
2. Arrange the chicken pieces in a shallow, non-metallic dish. Spoon the sauce over the chicken to evenly coat. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.
3. Preheat oven to 425°F.
4. Lightly grease the baking sheet and arrange the marinated chicken on it.
5. Bake until crispy, about 45 minutes. Garnish with lime wedges.
