🕒 Prep & Cooking Time

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 40 minutes
Servings: 2–3
Difficulty: Easy

📝 Ingredients

10 chicken wings
1 small cup teriyaki sauce (store-bought or homemade; add sesame seeds for extra texture)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

🔪 Step-by-Step Instructions

Rinse the wings and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper evenly.
Arrange wings in a single layer on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake at 220°C (430°F) for 20 minutes.
Brush the wings generously with teriyaki sauce using a silicone brush. Bake for another 10 minutes.
Repeat the brushing with sauce and bake for an additional 10 minutes to build a sticky glaze.
- If cooking on a charcoal grill, brush and turn the wings frequently to glaze both sides evenly.
Turn on the oven grill (broiler) for 1–2 minutes to crisp the glaze slightly — skip this step if using a charcoal grill.
Serve immediately with steamed rice or vegetable noodles and extra teriyaki sauce on the side for dipping.

💡 Cooking Tips & Variations

For a smoky twist, try finishing the wings on a charcoal grill as described.
Add freshly toasted sesame seeds on top before serving for extra crunch.
For a spicier kick, mix some chili flakes into the teriyaki sauce before glazing.
These wings pair beautifully with stir-fried vegetables or a fresh Asian slaw.
