Ingredients

4 pounds chicken wings, split at joint and wing tips discarded

1 cup soy sauce

½ cup dry red wine

½ cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar

¼ teaspoon ground ginger

Directions

Cut off wing tips, reserving them for another use, and halve wings at joint. Arrange wings, skin sides down, in a roasting pan large enough to hold them in one layer.

In a small saucepan heat remaining ingredients over moderately low heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved and pour evenly over wings. Bake wings in middle of oven 45 minutes. Turn wings over and bake until cooking liquid is thick and sticky, about 45 minutes to 1 hour more.

Transfer wings with tongs to a platter.

Great pic. I will have to make these and hope they turn out as pretty as your picture of the wings. I guess I will be "winging" it. JJ

Thanks for a great post.
Just served these, they are fabulous--the whole family loved them, one son want it again with extra sauce to put over rice. This recipe is a keeper.
