Chicken wings mean carnage!

(Ten points if you get the movie reference for this post’s title, by the way.)

Mom made these awesome teriyaki chicken wings when we visited over the Fourth of July holiday and I decided that I’d make a batch. Some are for us, and some will go to work with me. Well … our poor little kitchen became a scene of carnage tonight. I got wings, but I had to hack the tips off and split them before I tossed them in the marinade. There was a lot of ripping and bone crunching. I have some small sympathies for my vegetarian friends, but I think I’ll recover enough to eat wings tomorrow

If you want the recipe, here you are.

MARINATED CHICKEN WINGS

3 pounds chicken wings
1/2 pound dark brown sugar
1 cup soy sauce
2 tbls. garlic powder

1. Cut off and discard the tip of each wing, then cut the rest into two pieces. Place in a large shallow baking pan.
2. In a medium bowl combine the brown sugar, soy sauce, and garlic powder, and mix well. Pour over the wings, cover and refrigerate for 24 hours.
3. Preheat oven to 350.
4. Bake chicken for 20 minutes in the marinade. Drain off the marinade and place the wings on large baking sheet.
5. Just below serving, preheat the broiler, broil the wings for 5 minutes, turn and broil 5 minutes or until they reach the desired crispness. Serve hot.
