Ingredients
- 700 g chicken wings
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 120 ml soy sauce
- 60 ml honey
- 50 g brown sugar
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 2 spring onions, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and place them in a large bowl.
- Season the wings with salt and black pepper.
- Add cornstarch and vegetable oil, then toss until the wings are evenly coated.
- Arrange the wings in a single layer on the baking tray.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, turning halfway through, until the wings are golden and cooked through.
- While the wings bake, prepare the teriyaki sauce by combining soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and rice vinegar in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer while stirring.
- Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl to form a slurry, then slowly add it to the sauce while stirring.
- Cook for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.
- Transfer the cooked wings to a bowl and pour the warm teriyaki sauce over them.
- Toss until all wings are evenly coated with the sauce.
- Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced spring onions.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- Pat the wings dry before baking to help them crisp better.
- Baking the wings on a wire rack improves air circulation and crispiness.
- Add chili flakes or chili sauce to the teriyaki sauce for a spicy version.
- Pineapple juice can be added to the sauce for a sweet tropical variation.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 10 minutes to maintain texture.
