Honey Soy Chicken Wingettes
When you need a little savoury sweet snack to go with drinkies, or just serve up with rice and veggies to please the youngest of the crew. YUM
I used to make these by the kilo when my kids were still living at home. On Saturday mornings I would whack a tray or two of these in the oven so that when the morning activities were complete, this was the easy snack to keep them almost full until dinner. They were demolished in no time flat. Be warned and maybe make more than the recipe suggests.
I am pretty sure they are also very good for an easy snack to serve with pre-dinner drinks, if not a little finger licking good which doesn't always go so well with an elegant event. But you make the call!
