Sweet and sticky chicken wings

I made these sweet and sticky chicken wings for Halloween. The seasoning is Chinese style, but for colour I added tomato purée to the marinade. You can leave this out if you want authentic flavours. They are gluten, dairy and egg free- for nut/free version use vegetable oil.  and no sesame seeds. Serve them as nibbles at parties or part of a Chinese menu.
