STICKY THAI CHICKEN WINGS

Hello readers! Hope you've all had a lovely week! Those of you who have been following my instagram must have guessed the recipe coming up today :) 

Iv made this dish a few times before but have always fried the chicken before dropping it into the sauce. This time I tried baking it and it was as good............
This dish for me, is something I would make only on special occasions because I find it dangerously sinful with the amount of sauces, filled with sodium that goes into it. But it is sooooo tasty! So yes!....This week we had a very special friend over for dinner and we had some Tom Yam fried rice and sticky Thai chicken wings. Im a BIG fan of thai food! :)

This recipe is quite easy..... Gets all its taste from the sauces. You can alter the amount of sauces according to your taste.

chicken wings with the skin - 12 (drummets and flats separated)
a pinch of salt for the chicken
