Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds chicken party wings
For the marinade:
  • ¼ cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon balsamic vinegar
  • ½ teaspoons rice wine vinegar
  • 1½ teaspoons water
  • 6 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ cup water
For the glaze:
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
  1. Combine all ingredients for the marinade in a zipper topped bag. Massage the bag so that all of the ingredients are well combined. Add the chicken wings and massage the bag so that the wings are well coated in the marinade. Place wings in the refrigerator and marinate for at least an hour, or overnight for best flavor. Flip the bag a few times while the wings are marinating.
  2. When the chicken is ready to be cooked, preheat oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  3. Place chicken wings in a single layer on prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece of chicken. Reserve the marinade.
  4. Bake the chicken until they are golden and crispy and have reached an internal temperature of 175 F, about 45-50 minutes.
  5. About 15 minutes before the chicken has finished cooking, bring the marinade to a boil in a small pot. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and water. Stir so that the cornstarch is dissolved in the water. Pour the water mixture into the marinade and stir to combine. Cook the glaze until it has thickened slightly, or for at least 10 minutes. Reduce the heat and and water, 1 tablespoon at a time if the glaze is too thick. Let the sauce cool for a few minutes. It will thicken as it cools.
  6. Brush both sides of the cooked wings with the glaze.
  7. Serve hot.
