Chicken Drumettes

This was a recipe my Mom used to make. It is found in a family recipe book that was collected and compiled in 1991.
I am lazy and don't marinate the wings in a marinating dish first. I just put them straight into the baking pan. However, the wings can marinate longer if you want more of the spice in the chicken.

1/4 - 1/2 cup light soy sauce (I use low sodium)
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 package chicken wings cut at joint (discard tip)
3 Tablespoons sugar (approximately)
1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper (white or black)

Sprinkle chicken with sugar; let sit 15 minutes. Add spices to soy sauce; mix well; pour over wings. Turn over in 5 minutes and let stand 3 minutes more. Place wings and sauce in a baking dish, spreading wings out. Bake 45 minutes at 350° to 375°.

Serve with rice. Good hot or cold. Can substitute Tariyaki for Soy sauce.
