Chicken Wings
- 2 lbs chicken wings, split at joints
Teriyaki Glaze
- 1/2 cup pineapple juice
- 1/3 cup teriyaki sauce
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp grated ginger
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for baking the wings evenly.
- Prepare Wings: Arrange the split chicken wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup and non-stick cooking.
- Initial Bake: Bake the wings for 25 minutes, flipping them halfway through the baking time to ensure even cooking and browning on both sides.
- Make Sauce: While wings bake, combine pineapple juice, teriyaki sauce, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper in a bowl, mixing thoroughly to form a flavorful glaze.
- Glaze and Bake Again: Brush the prepared sauce generously over the wings, then return to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes to allow the glaze to caramelize and become sticky.
- Serve: Remove wings from oven and serve hot, optionally providing extra sauce on the side for dipping.
Notes
- For extra crispy wings, broil for 2-3 minutes after the final bake, watching carefully to avoid burning.
- Adjust honey quantity for sweeter or less sweet glaze according to taste.
- Can be paired with steamed rice or crisp salad to complement the flavors.
- Use low-sodium soy sauce if you want to reduce salt content.
- Ensure wings are fully cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safety.
