Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 40 minutes
Total Time 55 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • lb chicken wings split and tips removed
  • 1 cup pineapple juice from a can or fresh
  • ½ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • ¼ cup brown sugar packed
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp cold water slurry
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple drained
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 3 green onions thinly sliced
  • Sesame seeds for garnish optional
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with foil; oil lightly. Toss wings with salt, pepper, and oil, then arrange in a single layer.
  2. Roast wings 35–40 minutes, flipping once, until skin is crisp and juices run clear.
  3. Meanwhile, combine pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger in a saucepan over medium heat.
  4. Simmer 6–8 minutes, then stir in crushed pineapple. Whisk cornstarch slurry and add, cooking until sauce thickens, about 1–2 minutes.
  5. Toss roasted wings in the teriyaki-pineapple sauce to coat. Return to oven 3–5 minutes to caramelize slightly.
  6. Sprinkle with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
