How to make Sweet and Sour Wings
For the Sticky Wings
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Dice the green onions and set aside.
Dry the wing portions with a paper towel.
In a medium bowl, mix together the baking powder, salt, and pepper. Add the wing portions and stir to coat.
Grease a 7 x 11 baking dish. Pour in the wings and spread into an even layer.
Bake the wings for 30 minutes.
For the Sweet and Sour Sauce
While the chicken is baking, in a different medium bowl, mix the green onions, sugar, ketchup, vinegar, soy sauce, and garlic powder and whisk together.
Place a medium saucepan over medium heat and cook the sauce until thickened about 15 minutes.
When the chicken is done baking, pour the sauce evenly over the chicken stirring to coat.
Bake the chicken for another 5 minutes.
