My ex-mother-in-law gave me this recipe and it's one of my favorites to take to church dinners, parties, or even dinner. Everyone loves these when I make them. They are usually the first to go.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

The sauce on these chicken wings is scrumptious. When coating the fried chicken wings it's nice and sticky. With soy sauce, granulated sugar, and spices, it's salty, sweet, and spicy. Coating the chicken pieces in a seasoned flour mixture and baking soda adds flavor to the chicken and creates a nice, crispy crust. We kept going back for another one until they were all gone... they're that good.
