Ingredients
- 2 lbs Chicken wings
- 0.5 cup Soy sauce
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Water
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds (optional garnish)
- 2 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced (optional garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Lightly grease the wire rack with cooking spray or oil to prevent sticking.
Step 2
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and arrange them in a single layer on the prepared wire rack. This will help them cook evenly and become slightly crispy.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil until well combined.
Step 4
Reserve 1/4 cup of the teriyaki sauce for later. Brush the remaining sauce generously over both sides of the chicken wings.
Step 5
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Flip the wings over, brush with more sauce, and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the wings are fully cooked and slightly caramelized.
Step 6
While the wings are baking, prepare the glaze by combining the reserved 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce, cornstarch, and water in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and becomes glossy. Remove from heat.
Step 7
Once the wings are fully cooked, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the thickened glaze over the wings and toss to coat them evenly.
Step 8
Transfer the wings to a serving platter and sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your World's Best and Easiest Teriyaki Chicken Wings!
