WHAT YOU’LL NEED FOR THE CRISPY TERIYAKI CHICKEN WINGS:
- Chicken wings, split
- Sweet potato starch (paleo) or baking powder (keto)
- Kosher salt and ground white pepper (or fresh cracked black pepper)
- Garlic powder
HELPFUL TIPS AND TRICKS TO GET THE BEST CRISPY TERIYAKI CHICKEN WINGS:
- Always always pat your chicken wing dry. Moisture is the enemy of crispiness.
- After the chicken is coated with the seasonings and your choice of sweet potato starch or baking powder, place them on a cookie sheet with a wire rack on top and then refrigerate uncovered for at least an hour but overnight is best.
- The sweet potato starch or baking powder is going to help with getting the chicken wings crispy. So don’t skip this ingredient!
- When the chicken wings are cooked, start off with a small amount of teriyaki sauce when coating them and go from there. You want enough sauce to cover the chicken wings but don’t want to over saturate it. Use any remaining sauce for dipping.
- These Crispy Teriyaki Chicken Wings are best served right away! If you have leftovers you can always throw them in an air fryer or in an oven to get the crispiness back.
I hope you enjoy these chicken wings as much as I do. Tag me on Instagram if you make this recipe!
