Teriyaki Chicken Wings Cooking Guide

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This high temperature will ensure that your Teriyaki Chicken Wings get crispy on the outside while staying juicy on the inside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings with salt and pepper to taste. This simple seasoning will enhance the flavor of the wings.
  • In another mixing bowl, whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce, water, brown sugar, dry mustard, ground ginger, and minced garlic. Make sure all ingredients are well combined, creating a smooth sauce.
  • Pour half of the teriyaki sauce over the chicken wings, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Allow the wings to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or if you have time, let them sit in the refrigerator for a few hours for even more flavor.
  • Line your baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Arrange the marinated chicken wings in a single layer on the sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through for even cooking.
  • After 30 minutes, remove the wings from the oven. Brush them with the reserved teriyaki sauce and return to the oven for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the wings are caramelized and crispy.
  • Once the wings are done, take them out of the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Serve your delicious Teriyaki Chicken Wings with extra sauce on the side for dipping and enjoy!
