Miso Chicken Wingettes

Miso glazed chicken wingettes are seasoned with a sweet Japanese miso (fermented soy bean paste) and baked in the oven until juicy and delicious. Chicken wings are a popular dish in Japanese cuisine, known as "tebasaki", but they are often served whole, and not cut up into smaller wingettes as they are in this recipe.
This recipe is fairly quick and easy as the ingredients for the sauce are simply mixed and then tossed with the wingettes. There are several options below to help tailor the recipe to perfectly suit your tastes. Enjoy!
​ Recipe Tips

1. Any type of miso may be used: red, white, awase (mix of red and white miso).
2. Make it spicy by adding Japanese 7 spice chili flakes (shichimi togarashi), Ra-yu spicy Japanese chili oil, or dried chili peppers slices or flakes.
3. As with any recipe, make it to suit your own taste by adjusting the amount of sugar.
4. If you're a garlic lover, try adding about a 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of chopped garlic to the miso marinade in the recipe below to add a bit of boldness to the dish.
