Recipe: Crispy Chicken Wings With Seven-Spice-Powder Marinade
These wings are marinated in soy, sesame oil, and shichimi togarashi, (a Japanese seven-spice blend that gets its flavor from Sichuan pepper, chili, roasted orange peel, and sesame seeds). It’s a heady, aromatic blend of flavors that seeps deep into the wings and chars up beautifully when grilled, keeping the wings super moist and flavored through and through. Unlike other wing preparations these particular wings are basted during the grilling process adding even more salty spiced goodness. Sounds good yet? For the most flavor, allow at least one hour marinating time
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons shichimi togarashi (Japanese seven spice blend)
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 pounds chicken wings
Procedure:
- Whisk together the sesame oil, shichimi togarashi, soy sauce, and salt in a bowl to make the marinade. Pour three-fourths of the marinade onto a baking dish or rimmed sheet pan; reserve the rest. Lay the wings in the marinade and flip them as many times to coat all over.
- Preheat a grill to high. Grill the wings for around 8 minutes, flipping about every 1 minute and brushing on the reserved marinade after each turn. The wings are ready when they are sizzling and browned.
- Serve immediately and let you taste buds do the rest.
