Description
Sticky Pineapple-Teriyaki Chicken Wings: Sweet, tangy, and irresistibly sticky, these wings are glazed with a tropical pineapple-teriyaki sauce for a juicy, caramelized finish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs chicken wings, split and tips removed
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- ⅓ cup soy sauce (use low sodium if preferred)
- 3 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water (for thickening)
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional for garnish)
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the chicken wings in a single layer. Bake for 35–40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crisp.
- While wings bake, prepare the sauce. In a saucepan, combine pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, garlic, ginger, and vinegar. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Stir in cornstarch mixture and cook for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.
- Toss baked wings in the sauce until evenly coated. Return to the oven for 5–7 minutes to caramelize the glaze.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions before serving. Enjoy warm and sticky!
Notes
- For gluten-free option, use gluten-free soy sauce if needed.
- Adjust sweetness with more honey or brown sugar to taste.
- For extra crispiness, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end.
- Sauce can be prepared in advance and reheated before tossing with wings.
