Ingredients
  

For the Wings
  • 2 pounds Chicken Wings Fresh wings are essential for a tender and juicy texture.
  • 3 cloves Garlic (minced) Freshly minced garlic brings a delightful aromatic flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon Ginger (minced) Use fresh ginger for warmth; ground ginger can be a quick substitute.
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper Freshly ground adds a zingy kick to the wings.
For the Glaze
  • 1 cup Pineapple Juice Opt for fresh juice for a sweet, tangy touch.
  • 1/2 cup Teriyaki Sauce Provides a rich umami flavor; low-sodium soy sauce can be a lighter alternative.
  • 1/4 cup Honey This natural sweetener enhances caramelization; substitute with maple syrup for a vegan option.
  • 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce Adds depth; tamari is an excellent gluten-free alternative.
Optional Garnishes
  • 2 tablespoons Toasted Sesame Seeds These add a delightful crunch and nutty flavor.
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Cilantro Provides a fresh garnish and enhances the visual appeal.

  3. In a mixing bowl, combine pineapple juice, teriyaki sauce, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, minced ginger, and black pepper. Whisk to blend.
