This Vietnamese caramel turkey wing recipe leans on the sweet-salty-funky trinity that defines Vietnamese cooking: brown sugar, fish sauce, and fresh lime juice. The spicy turkey wing marinade gets a kick from bird's eye chili, though you can skip it for kids or dial it way up if you're into punishment.
