What you'll need
Preparation
- 1 Mix brown sugar, mirin, sake, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger and garlic powder in medium bowl. Reserve ½ cup (125mL) for the glaze.
- 2 Place chicken wings in large resealable plastic bag. Add remaining marinade; turn to coat well. Refrigerate 30 minutes or longer for extra flavor.
- 3 Stir cornstarch into reserved marinade. Bring to boil in small saucepan. Reduce heat to low; simmer 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Cool 5 minutes. Stir in Wasabi Furikake Seasoning. Pour glaze into large bowl. Set aside.
- 4 Remove wings from marinade. Discard any remaining marinade. Thread 1, each flat and drumstick, wing piece crosswise onto 2 skewers. Grill wings over medium heat 20 to 25 minutes or until cooked through, turning occasionally.
- 5 Brush wings with reserved glaze. Sprinkle with additional Wasabi Furikake Seasoning and green onions before serving.
- 6 Tip: Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes. This prevents them from burning on the grill.
