Chicken wings are a staple offering at sports watch parties, picnics, happy hours, and much more. Buffalo style wings are perhaps the most recognized version of this beloved finger food, but the opportunities are just about endless for experimenting with flavors.
Take, for example, the sweet and sour appeal that is “Honey-Garlic Chicken Wings,” which pairs sweet honey with the tang of additional ingredients and the kick of garlic. People will be hard-pressed to say “when” if a big batch of these wings is offered. They go well with rice, green peas or a refreshing fruit salad on the side.
