About
These wings are loud in the best way. Sweet honey, punchy pineapple, and smoky grill char come together for seriously sticky chicken wings that demand extra napkins. Think honey-pineapple grilled chicken meets backyard cookout energy: bold, caramelized, and just a little messy. Tips & Tricks- Let them caramelize. Don’t flip too early. That char-grilled chicken flavor comes from letting the sugars in the honey pineapple sauce develop a deep color.
- Sauce in layers. Brush during the last few minutes of grilling to build that glossy, sticky chicken wings finish without burning.
- Finish with heat. A quick squeeze of lime or pinch of chili flakes balances the sweetness and keeps these pineapple chicken wings from leaning too dessert-y.
Ingredients
3 pounds chicken wings, thawed if frozen
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup Kikkoman® Teriyaki BBQ & Glaze Honey & Pineapple, for brushing
Jalapeños, thinly sliced, for serving
Directions
