Japanese Chicken Wings
These Japanese Chicken Wings are not just a dish; they are a culinary experience! Perfect for parties, family gatherings, or a cozy night in, they are sure to impress your guests and satisfy your cravings.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds of chicken wings
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
- Green onions, sliced (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Whisk until well mixed.
- Add the chicken wings to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, ideally overnight for maximum flavor.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil, making cleanup easier.
- Remove the chicken wings from the marinade and let the excess drip off. Place them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Sprinkle cornstarch evenly over the wings, ensuring they are lightly coated. This step is crucial for achieving that perfect crispy texture.
- Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Halfway through the baking time, flip the wings to ensure even cooking.
- Once done, remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Drizzle any leftover marinade over the wings for extra flavor, and then sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish.
- Serve these delicious Japanese Chicken Wings hot, and enjoy the burst of flavors with every bite!
