Ingredients
Scale
Gather these simple ingredients to whip up a batch of these irresistible wings:
- 2 pounds chicken wings, split at the joint and tips removed
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon grated ginger
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions for garnish
- Sesame seeds for garnish
Feel free to substitute soy sauce with a low-sodium option if you’re watching your salt intake, and you can replace brown sugar with honey for a different kind of sweetness.
Instructions
Follow these steps to make these wings come to life in your kitchen:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water until smooth. Gradually whisk this into the saucepan. Continue to simmer the sauce until it thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the sesame oil.
- Arrange the chicken wings on the prepared baking sheet. Brush them generously with the pineapple teriyaki sauce, reserving some for later.
- Bake the wings for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they’re golden brown and cooked through.
- Once baked, brush the wings with the remaining sauce and sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
Remember, it’s okay if things get a little messy—that’s part of the fun of home cooking!
