Teriyaki Chicken Wings
These Teriyaki Chicken Wings feature a crisp coating of potato starch seasoned with garlic and onion powders and are baked to a golden finish. The wings are glazed in a homemade teriyaki sauce combining soy sauce, honey, orange juice, garlic, and mirin, yielding a balanced blend of savory, sweet, and citrus notes. Toasted sesame seeds and green onions add texture and fresh flavor to this appealing appetizer or snack.
Ingredients
- 2½ lb chicken wings
- 4 tbsp potato starch
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- ⅔ cup soy sauce
- ½ cup honey
- ½ cup orange juice or pineapple juice
- 2 tbsp garlic minced
- 2 tbsp mirin
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 450F.
- Pat dry the chicken wings with a paper towel if they are moist.
- Mix together the potato starch, garlic powder, and onion powder before coating the chicken wings in them.
- Place the chicken wings in a single layer on a parchment-lined sheet pan and spray the tops of the chicken with some cooking oil.
- Decrease the oven temperature to 425F and bake the chicken wings for 40 minutes, flipping at the half way mark.
- While the wings are baking, in a saucepan, combine the soy sauce, honey, orange juice, garlic, and mirin. Bring it to a boil and simmer until it has thickened to the consistency of honey. You can add a tablespoon of cornstarch to the mixture before bringing it to a boil if you want to cut down on simmering time.
- Once the wings are done, transfer them to a large bowl and add the teriyaki sauce a few tablespoons at a time until the wings are all coated. Top with some toasted sesame seed and green onions as a garnish before serving.
