Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Chicken wings
- 0.5 cup Soy sauce
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 teaspoons Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons Scallions, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse and pat dry the chicken wings with paper towels.
In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil to create the teriyaki sauce.
Place the chicken wings in the Crock Pot and pour the teriyaki sauce evenly over the wings. Toss gently to ensure all the wings are coated in the sauce.
Cover the Crock Pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 4 hours or on high heat for 2-3 hours, until the chicken wings are tender and cooked through.
Once cooked, carefully remove the wings from the Crock Pot and transfer them to a serving platter. Cover the platter with foil to keep the wings warm.
Pour the remaining sauce from the Crock Pot into a small saucepan. In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Add the slurry to the saucepan and bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens to a glaze-like consistency (about 2-3 minutes).
Brush or toss the cooked chicken wings with the thickened teriyaki glaze.
Garnish the wings with sesame seeds and chopped scallions, if desired, before serving. Serve warm as an appetizer or entrée!
