Now, depending on the flavours you want, the sauces can be added to the marinade that includes – bbq sauce, soy sauce, chilli sauce or even a sweet sauce. Another important point to take care of is to massage the wings well, as only then you will get a nice & juicy dish. Also, if experts are to be believed, then you must keep the marinated chicken for 2-3 hours in the fridge.
