Honey, soy sauce, and lemon are a great combination. These three ingredients (with the help of some seasoning, of course) can be used to liven up some chicken wings! For this recipe, I left the chicken wings whole, but feel free to break them down into wingette, drumette, and wing tip. If you don’t have a use for the wing tip, make a nice chicken stock with them instead.

- In bowl, mix together the soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, all-purpose seasoning, 5 spice, and chilli flakes.

Tip: If you want less work cleaning the tray, line it with 2 layers of foil before placing the wings on to cook.
