Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix Catalina dressing, soy sauce, and minced ginger root in a bowl.
- Pour the marinade over the chicken wings and marinate if desired.
- Bake the wings at 350°F until tender and cooked through.
Tips & Substitutions
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding some minced garlic to the marinade. If you want a sweeter taste, you can substitute honey for part of the soy sauce. To achieve crispy wings, broil them for a few minutes at the end of baking. This recipe pairs wonderfully with Tojo'S Wacky Wok Chicken for a complete meal.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these wings with a side of steamed rice or a fresh green salad to balance the flavors. They are great as a party appetizer or as part of a larger spread featuring other chicken recipes. Pair with dipping sauces like sweet chili or a spicy sriracha for added zest.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover chicken wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in the oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through, to maintain their crispiness. You can also microwave them, but they may lose some texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use other types of chicken pieces instead of wings?
Yes, you can use drumsticks or thighs instead of wings. Just adjust the cooking time to ensure they are cooked through, typically around 25-30 minutes depending on the size of the pieces.
How long should I marinate the chicken wings?
For optimal flavor, marinate the chicken wings for at least 30 minutes, but if you have more time, letting them sit in the marinade for a few hours or overnight in the refrigerator will enhance the taste even more.
Can I grill these wings instead of baking them?
Absolutely! Grilling the wings adds a wonderful smoky flavor. Preheat your grill to medium heat and cook the marinated wings for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally until they are cooked through and have nice grill marks.
