The smell while these sticky wings bake in the oven in amazing.

Ingredients

  • 3 lbs chicken wings
  • 1/2 cup margarine or butter
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/2 tsp dry mustard
  • 3/4 tsp garlic powder (optional)

Directions

  1. Arrange wings in shallow baking pan. Heat butter, soy sauce, sugar, water mustard and garlic powder if using, until butter and sugar melt.
  2. Cool: pour over wings and marinate at least 2 hours, turning once or twice.
  3. Bake in same pan at 375 for 1 1/4 hour to 1 1/2 hours, turning occasionally.
