    Chicken Wings in Japanese is Tebasaki/手羽先, meaning H”and Wing Extremities”! This is a very popular morsel in this country where nothing is thrown away as far as food is concerned. We can find some really fat/meaty ones in the market here. They make for great snacks with beer, sake or wine!

    Ingredients

    • Chicken Wings: 8 (choose them as large as possible!)
    • Marinade:
    • Japanese sake: 1 tablespoon (if unavailable, use white wine)
