I love Asian flavors and have a lot of condiments and sauces on hand. I came up with this to try XO sauce into a dish. XO sauce can be bought on Amazon or at fine Asian markets. You can make your own also. There are many recipes on the internet. You could eliminate it all together and still have yummy chicken wings.
