I've made these wings several times now. I love the flavor but I do think that the instructions are faulty and that's why I can only give it four stars. After several tries and ending up with runny, watered down sauce, I decided to experiment a bit. What I've ended up doing is to put the frozen wings in a roasting pan and cook them for about an hour (or longer) to thaw them, draw off the extra water and to render most of the fat. I drain that off and mix the jam, soup mix and Catalina dressing together then toss the wings in the mixture. I spread them out on a greased jelly roll pan and then broil them until one side is done. Then I flip them all over and broil until the second side is cooked and the sauce is thick and sticky.
It takes MUCH longer than the original instructions but it's the only way I've found to not have the sauce so watery that it was pointless to have it there at all. If someone else has a better way, please share it because I love the flavor from this recipe but they are a bit more work than I have to invest at times.
It's still worth making this recipe though!
