Teba Shio – Salted Chicken Wing

Follow Jasmine: https://www.instagram.com/jasmineandtea

Here’s a simple, yet so flavorful method for making juicy and crisp chicken wings. The key ingredient is sake, which helps remove bad odors, tenderizes the meat, adds umami and a slight sweetness, and aids in caramelizing the skin.

I tested this recipe several times and found 8 hours, or an overnight marinade, creates the most flavorful chicken, but 30 minutes will be just fine if you don’t have the time. Liberally season both sides of the wings with salt and broil on both sides for about 10 minutes, until golden and crisp, then sprinkle shichimi togarashi, Japanese red pepper, on top.

  1. Maybe some Japanese make chicken wings this way, but calling it the Japanese way to make chicken wings is misleading.

  2. The only thing Japanese about this is the seasoning you put on it at the end

  3. Sounds good. There seem to be different quality Sake to choose from. Suggestions?

  4. Would you get the same results if you air fried the wings with the seasoning on top?

  5. Here before a massive culture fight breaks out in the comments over who makes better wings.
