Like many others mentioned, there is too much salt. The wings ended up tasting like salt, followed by soy-sauce.

Wonderful flavor. I followed the tips and only did a bit of salt and baked for a lower fat version. Came out great!

I didn't have the gin, used chinese cooking wine instead. Left out most of the salt, 1tbsp only. Next time I leave out all the salt. I added 1tsp. onion powder and 0.5tsp garlic powder. All chinese food has ginger, garlic and onion. I only had 4 hrs to marinade. Worked out great, a bit salty. I'd make it again for sure. My whole family gobbled them up. Took about 5 or 6 minutes to cook in the hot oil.

I followed this recipe just as it is written and I don't think I could alter it to make it any better. However I did use a generic brand and small party piece wings, I will use a better quality of chicken next time and shop for good size wings. A very good and easy recipe that this cook is sure to use again.

I used light soy and added an 1/8 t of chinese 5 spice powder to the marinade...i grilled them (indirect charcoal fire)and i thought that they came out very good...i boiled the marinade and basted them a couple of times during their time on the grill.

These wings are great. I must say though, i have a high tolerance for salty foods. Add lots of fresh garlic and bake!

I started making the marinade but i didn't have any whiskey on had. I tasted the marinade and didn't like the flavor at all. I ended adding some more ingredients,baked it, and dosed it in BBQ sauce. Everyone seem to like...they didn't love it.

i also agree with other reviews that this recipe was way too salty. i think maybe next time instead of marinating it for 24hours i will marinate for 24 minutes.
