- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (mixed with 2 tbsp water, for thickening)
- 2 tbsp sesame seeds
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels. This helps them crisp up better when cooking.
Pan-fry in a little oil until golden and cooked through (about 8–10 minutes per side).
In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add the cornstarch slurry, stirring until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.
Toss the cooked wings in the teriyaki sauce until fully coated.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions before serving. Enjoy hot!
