Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 900 g chicken wings, separated into drumettes and flats
- 120 ml pineapple juice
- 60 ml soy sauce
- 55 g brown sugar
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 tsp freshly grated ginger
- 60 ml pineapple chunks
- 8 g cornstarch
- 30 ml water
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 200°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger until the sugar dissolves.
- Add chicken wings to the marinade, ensuring each wing is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Cooking
- Arrange the marinated wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Season with salt and black pepper.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and the skin is golden.
- While the chicken bakes, mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl to form a smooth slurry.
- Transfer the remaining marinade to a saucepan over medium heat. Add pineapple chunks and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Gradually pour in the cornstarch slurry, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens.
- Remove wings from the oven. Transfer them to a serving bowl and toss thoroughly with the warm pineapple sauce. Serve immediately, garnished as desired.
Notes
For extra flavor, let the chicken marinate overnight. Make sure to coat the wings evenly with the sauce to get maximum sweetness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 75°C.
