This recipe is a must try! Honestly, this is one of the best wings I’ve ever made! The sauce is made by mixing lemongrass, lime, honey, soy, garlic, and ginger. With all the aromatics used in the recipe, how can it not be delicious?!
I would have added some chilli flakes if not for the kids. It’s great on it’s own or served with rice/noodles. It requires minimal clean up as long as you line your pan with foil. All you need to do is to mix, and bake. That simple! The kids loved it too!

what is the thickened sauce? Is this the sauce from the oven pan?

I simply seasoned both side of the chicken and send it to bake. Didn't leave it to marinate. You can do that step first and let it sit for a while if you want to, but honestly, there is no need for that additional time. 🙂

5 January, 2015 at 4:51 amThank you Lyn! The only difference is that you will not get those chunky bits if it is grated. But if you minced it finely it should be fine too. 🙂

14 September, 2015 at 7:51 pmHi! Possibly. Others that have tried this recipe worked out fine, if not darker then mine. Some made theirs in an air-fryer instead of oven.
