Teba Shio - Salted Chicken Wing

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.

Looks good definitely want to try this!

[VWHNeal]

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

[vincentvancryptogh]

people saying Yummy! Im going to try this! have never cooked b4.

You can use cheap beer to the same effect.

I don’t know why these look so good because you didn’t use any seasoning during the cooking process except for salt?

[HawkeyeFortune]

That much sake would cost $10 a chicken wing

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

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

[gamblingKidd]

8 hours but 30 minutes works too…..interesting

[cjroberts]

um no... use a spray bottle to finish with sake. less sake used and more flavor

[Kidsollekz]

30min to 8 hours makes sense 😂😂😂 can I stop at four I’m hungry

[wanderingknight]

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

[Cyanidesin]

Brine prepping chicken does make it better

[hbgriss]

So add $15+ to your wings for a bottle of sake? 🥴👏👏👏👏

Sake is too expensive to just waste it like this.

[ChrissyRose]

Girl that is not done. Chicken Can NOT be cooked for 10 mins on each side and be done.

[tigerlilly]

alcohol? ma'am that's expensive.

[vincentvancryptogh]

guarantee they do not put $5 of sake on $5 of chicken wings. too expensive, maybe jamapense psuedo american sure. true japanese pays respect to every ingredient. Unless they are repurposing the sake and drinking it after, no way they are washing raw chicken with such a good spirit
