Easy & Delicious BBQ Chicken Wings

Easy Barbecue Chicken Wings, Thai-style

D.Schmidt
This chicken wings recipe is very easy to make, and the taste is superb. Even your kids will go crazy for these chicken wings, which turn out naturally glazed with a garlicky and slightly sweet sauce. Barbecue them outdoors, or bake them in your oven - either way, they turn out fabulous. Chicken wings are always a popular choice for dinner, whether during the week or on long, hot summer weekends. Enjoy!

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 club-size pack of chicken wings (12-24)
  • BARBECUE SAUCE:
  • 2 Tbsp. soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp. fish sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. minced garlic, or bottled pureed garlic
  • 2 Tbsp. Thai Sweet Chili Sauce (available in most large supermarkets OR at Asian/Chinese stores)
  • 2 Tbsp. brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. dark soy sauce (available at Asian/Chinese food stores), OR 1 more Tbsp. regular soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp. lime juice
  • 2 Tbsp. oyster sauce (I used Golden Dragon brand)
  • 1-3 tsp. chili sauce (to taste), or more for hot wings

Preparation:

  1. Mix all the barbecue sauce ingredients together in a small bowl. Stir until the brown sugar dissolves.
  2. If wings are whole, cut them in half with a sharp cleaver (this makes them easier to cook and eat). Place wings in a large bowl and pour the barbecue sauce over. Stir well to coat the all chicken with sauce.
  3. Allow to marinate at least 10 minutes (while you warm up the grill), or up to 24 hours (covered in the refrigerator).
  4. Barbecue the wings, basting them once each side with some of the leftover marinade from the bottom of the bowl. OR cook them in your oven (see next instructions).
  5. To Cook Wings Indoors: Turn your oven on the "Broil" or "Grill" setting. Place the wings on a broiling pan (or a grill with a pan underneath to catch the drippings). Place the pan on one of the higher racks in your oven. Watch the wings carefully, as they can easily burn. Turn them every 5 minutes for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked. Baste them once or twice with the leftover marinade from the bottom of the bowl.
  6. Serve the wings as is, or with rice. ENJOY!
