Sticky Soy Chicken Wings are marinated in a soy sauce/brown sugar mixture and then baked for an hour. The marinade caramelizes in the oven and turns wonderfully sticky.
These Sticky Soy Chicken Wings have a little heat and a little sweetness and so much flavor. Perfect for gameday or as a party apppetizer. Serve them on their own or with Ranch dressing or Blue Cheese dressing for dipping. They have a little Asian flavor to them and are finger-licking good.
The simple 6-ingredient marinade really packs the flavor. There’s soy sauce, brown sugar, vegetable oil, garlic powder, ground ginger, and cayenne pepper.
You’ll want to marinate the wings for 2 to 24 hours. The longer you marinate them, the more flavor they will soak up. The marinade has a little sweetness with 1/3 a cup of brown sugar. If you want them to be sweeter, add 1/2 a cup of brown sugar.
I typically like my wings really crispy, but I have to say these sticky wings are addicting. Be sure to serve them with plenty of napkins. These wings make a mess.
Baking wings in the oven is so easy and so delicious. You do want to make sure you cover your baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy clean-up. The glaze will get really burnt onto your baking sheet if you don’t and you will be scrubbing all night.

These look amazing and cannot wait to try these! We love heat and
wings so should be fantastic.
Incredible recipe. Didn’t change a thing! The only thing I had to do was flip them halfway through cooking time! It’s likely due to my hatred for electric stoves… but I am sure if cooked in a gas stove they would be fine! Awesome recipe thanks so much for sharing 👍
I’ve made these a few times already that’s how much we love this recipe. I put mine on a rack that fits in the foil wrapped pan. Of course the rack is sprayed with Pam!! I do use tongs to lift each one so they don’t stick. The whole wing is sticky and crisp.
This recipe is a real keeper! I don’t do spicy, but the cayenne was the perfect amount! Just delicious! Thanks!
