Ingredients
3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/4 cup fish sauce
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (from 2 lemons)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1-inch piece fresh ginger, smashed and peeled
1 serrano or jalapeno chili, halved lengthwise, plus sliced chile for serving (optional)
2 pounds chicken wings, cut in half at joint (wing tips removed)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. In a 9 x 13-inch baking dish, whisk together the brown sugar, fish sauce, lemon juice and soy sauce until the sugar dissolves, 2 minutes. Add the ginger, chili and chicken wings; toss to coat. Arrange the wings in a single layer.
Bake the wings for 1 hour. Increase the heat to 450 degrees F and bake until the sauce is reduced and the wings are glazed, 30-35 minutes more, turning wings occasionally. Serve the wings with sliced chili if desired.
Notes
From http://www.cooking.com/recipes-and-more/recipes/sticky-chicken-wings-recipe-12690.aspx. Have not yet tried - found this one on the internet and marked it for future reference. Pork ribs variation: Instead of wings, you can use separated pork spare ribs. Cover with foil for the first hour of cooking, then remove foil and increase cooking time by 10 minutes.
