🧂 Ingredients

This is meant to be a brief overview of this chicken recipe. For step-by-step instructions and a full printable recipe card with ingredients, please scroll down to the teal box below.

If you prefer to use store-bought teriyaki sauce, no shame here! You can still follow this method, substituting the homemade sauce.

• chicken wings
• honey
• Teriyaki marinade (usually made with mirin, soy sauce, and ginger)
• vegetable oil
• chili powder
• granulated garlic (garlic powder)
• ground ginger
• soy sauce
• salt and black pepper
• scallions for garnish - you could also use chives
• sesame seeds (optional)

🔪Instructions

Honey Teriyaki Sauce

Here's how you make the flavorful sauce:

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, teriyaki marinade, oil, and seasonings. Divide the mixture, reserving half for baking.
2. Add the chicken to a large resealable container with the other half of the liquid.
3. Refrigerate 2 hours up to overnight. The longer the wings marinate, the better the flavor will be.

If you are not a fan of honey, try our sweet and spicy teriyaki sauce instead.

Baking the Wings

Here are the easy steps for making your new favorite wing recipe:

1. Preheat the oven to 375-degrees.
2. Remove the wings from the container and discard the remaining marinade.
3. Place the wings and reserved sauce to a glass baking dish.
4. Bake for 30 minutes, then turn and continue baking until the wings begin to caramelize – about another 15 minutes.
5. Sprinkle with chopped chives or scallions before serving.
