ingredients

Wings
2 pounds chicken wings 
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons butter 
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
½ cup honey
Sesame seeds and cilantro leaves (garnish) 

Marinade
1 cup Kikkoman® Tamari Soy Sauce
2 tablespoons Kikkoman® Sesame Oil
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves 
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2 cloves minced garlic 
Juice of ½ lemon 

directions

  1. Rinse chicken wings and pat dry. Remove tips and discard. Separate each wing at the joint and cut into 2 pieces. Place wings in a shallow dish or zipper seal bag. 
  2. Whisk together all marinade ingredients. Toss well to coat and let marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours. 
  3. Remove wings from marinade and pat dry; season with salt and pepper. In a wok or large sauté pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter with the olive oil. When the butter stops foaming, add the honey and chicken wings and cook for 5 minutes or until browned. Continue cooking and  turning the wings often for 5 minutes more to coat them as the glaze reduces. 
  4. Transfer to a serving dish and drizzle some of the glaze over the top. Garnish with sesame seeds and cilantro. Serve immediately.

THE STORY OF SOY SAUCE

Even people who love soy sauce and use it all the time are often surprised to learn what it is and how it’s made. We make ours from just four simple ingredients—water, soybeans, wheat, and salt. Those ingredients are transformed through a traditional brewing process—much like making wine or beer—that has remained unchanged for centuries.
