Key ingredients

Ingredients
This section reviews the best ingredients and substitutions for this recipe. For an exact list of ingredients and quantities, check the recipe card below.
- chicken wings – I buy a package of “party wings” from our local Costco. The wings are already separated into two pieces and the tip has been removed. Most grocery stores sell wings. You may have to separate them.
- soy sauce – I like to use a low sodium soy sauce. It helps prevent the sauce from becoming too salty.
- Rice Wine Vinegar – You can also use a white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
- Seasoning – Use ground ginger powder and fresh garlic. If you have fresh ginger on hand, feel free to use it.
- sweeteners – I like to use both brown sugar and honey. You can use just one if you prefer
- Sesame Seeds – These are optional, but I love they way they finish the wings. They go perfectly with the teriyaki sauce. I used untoasted seeds, but toasted work too.

In this section I share step by step photos, cooking method, techniques and a general overview. For detailed instructions, temperatures and timing, check the printable recipe card below.
- Pat wings dry with a paper towel and place wings in a large bowl
- Drizzle oil over the top of wings. Toss to mix so every part of the wing is covered with the oil
- Place wings on a baking rack


- Bake for 40 minutes, rotating wings halfway through
- Meanwhile, place soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, brown sugar, honey, garlic and ginger in a saucepan
- Mix cornstarch with a bit of water and then add to sauce
- Heat just until mixture begins to thicken
- When wings are done, remove from baking rack and place in a bowl
- For about half of the sauce over wings


- Toss to coat and return wings back to baking rack and back into the oven under the broiler until the sauce on the wings is bubbly and slightly charred
- Sprinkle wings with sesame seeds and serve with remaining teriyaki sauce on the side

recipe tips
- Your sauce will continue to thicken the longer it cooks. Remove from heat once it reaches the desired consistency. If the sauce gets too thick, thin with a bit of water.
- Be certain to pat the wings dry. This helps with crisping the wings.
- Use parchment paper or foil on your baking sheet. This makes clean up much easier.
- Check your wings after the 40 minutes of baking. If the skin isn’t crispy, give the wings another 5 minutes in the oven.
- When broiling, keep a close eye on your wings. You don’t want them burnt, but you do want them just slightly charred.
- Serve with extra sauce on the side for dipping!
Frequently asked questions
To reheat wings, place on a baking sheet and in a 350°F oven for 10-15 minutes until heated through. Wings can also be microwaved, but they do lose some of their crispness.
There are two main tips for achieving baked crispy wings. First, pat your wings dry so there is no excess moisture. Second, bake the wings on a baking rack over a cookie sheet. This allows both sides of the wings to cook, without getting a soggy underside to the wings.
