Whenever I host a party or receive an invite to a party, someone always requests these wings. They’re sticky and salty and sweet and… amazing.
The original recipe, which came from canarygirl.com, calls for them to be oven baked and that’s the method I usually use but I’ve been itching to try them in the slow cooker to see just how tender they would be. And oh my gosh, they were falling of the bone!
Seriously, make these at your next party. Or for a random dinner. Or a midnight snack. I don’t care, just make them!
Sticky Chinese Chicken Wings
adapted from canarygirl.com
3 lbs chicken wings
3/4 cup soy sauce
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Mix soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic powder together. Toss wings in the mixture and allow to marinate overnight. In the morning, put wings and marinade in slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours. Remove wings from slow cooker and transfer marinade (now sauce!) to a small saucepan. Allow to simmer until thickened. Pour over wings and enjoy!

Sounds yummy!!
Oooh that sounds soooo good.
Those look really delish! In your picture did you use drumettes? (I think that is what they are called)… looks like a great party food.

Toni, I do use the drumettes. I have used the whole wings in the past and they worked fine but I haven’t tried them in the crockpot.
OMG i want to east those right now…if only i weren’t so lazy!
This sounds and looks really good! I think we’ll be doing this next week. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
the sticky chinese chicken looks seriously good! I would have no problem finishing up the whole plate in your picture.
Do you think this would work with cut up chicken tenders? That’s what I usually do for buffalo “wings”, and they turn out well. I’m just not crazy about wings. I’ve been looking for a sticky chicken recipe, these look awesome!
Hey Quincy,
I don’t see why it wouldn’t work with tenders. I’m not a huge fan of chicken on the bone so I think I might try that next time I make the wings for my husband.
Thanks for commenting! It’s nice to see a Laundro girl over here.
Hi
What kind of brown sugar did you use light or dark.
I used light brown. Thanks for reading and commenting!

Those look great..I actually made sticky chicken last night very similar to these…I just added 1/4 c of fish sauce and 1/4 c lemon juice. The fish sauce really gave it depth….my husband LOVED it.
They look amazing, I’ve got friends over on Friday night so that could be the perfect excuse!
Thanks.
