It’s unofficially summer, and it marks the start of my favorite time of year (check out my summer recipes).
Coming from the tropical island of Penang in Malaysia, I love the warmth of sun, more importantly, I love summer parties, BBQ cookouts, beaches, ice cream, shaved iced, sundresses, sandals, and so much more. Summer is indeed a happy season!
To celebrate summer, I made these amazing Asian BBQ wings, which is an excellent BBQ wings recipe to add to your summer grilling and BBQ repertoire.
These Asian BBQ wings are pre-marinated with ginger, garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and five-spice powder. The wings are always a hit whenever I have summer parties.
They are always the first ones to go. They are excellent hot off the grill, and great with a dash or two of your favorite chili sauce.
For the wings, I recommend party wings, which you can get from the frozen section of all supermarkets.
Party wings are usually smaller and they are perfect for this recipe. I am not sure about you, I am always skeptical about those super-sized chicken wings that look like turkey wings than chicken wings.
Costco is also another great place to load up a bunch of party wings. Try this amazing Asian BBQ wings recipe and I am sure you will be making them again and again!

These look amazing! Bringing back some good memories of Chinese 烧烤 :)
This looks delish! And it looks like you are having so much fun grilling.
Living in an apartment that does not allow grilling/barbecuing, how could I make these in the oven?
Just bake it until golden brown
