This all-time favourite is a definite crowd pleaser. It is great for a meal, great for a finger food party and picnics. It is versatile and also tastes good cold. Use fresh bought chicken wingettes and marinate for a day or two for best results.
Ingredients
- 30 wingettes – marinated
- 1 cup honey
- 1 cup lemon juice – approximately 6 lemons
Directions
- In measuring cup combine the honey and lemon juice.
- Place chicken wingettes in the base of an airtight container.
- Pour marinade over the chicken to cover. Close the container and refrigerate for 1-2 days.
