Ingredients

• 2 pounds Chicken wings
• 0.25 cup Low sodium soy sauce (or coconut aminos for an even lower sodium option)
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon Cold water
• 0 Olive oil spray
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons Green onions, finely chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the rack lightly with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.

Step 2

Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure they crisp up in the oven. Arrange the wings on the wire rack in a single layer, making sure they don’t touch.

Step 3

Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip them over and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and crispy.

Step 4

While the wings are baking, prepare the low sodium teriyaki sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the low sodium soy sauce (or coconut aminos), honey, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, and sesame oil. Stir well and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and cold water to create a slurry. Slowly stir the slurry into the simmering sauce, whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens, then remove it from the heat.

Step 6

Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the teriyaki sauce over the wings and toss them until they are evenly coated.

Step 7

Optional: To add an extra touch, sprinkle the wings with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful low sodium teriyaki wings!
