Ingredients

  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp baking powder

For the glaze:

  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water (slurry)
  • Optional: red pepper flakes or hot sauce for heat

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and place a wire rack on top.
  2. Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels. Toss with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and baking powder until evenly coated.
  3. Arrange wings in a single layer on the rack and bake for 40–45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  4. While wings bake, combine pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer.
  5. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and simmer until glaze thickens and becomes shiny, about 5 minutes. Add red pepper flakes or hot sauce if desired.
  6. Toss baked wings in the glaze until fully coated.
  7. Return glazed wings to the oven for 5–10 more minutes to caramelize slightly.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions or sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

  • Add crushed pineapple to the glaze for texture.
  • Swap soy sauce with coconut aminos for a tropical variation.
  • Air fry the wings if short on time, then glaze afterward.
  • Use 100% pineapple juice and adjust sugar if using sweetened varieties.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge and reheat in the oven or air fryer.
