Teriyaki Chicken Wings

Teriyaki Chicken wings are the perfect sweet and tangy appetizer. These wings go great for game day and they are something almost everyone is sure to enjoy. These wings are deep fried and then mixed with a delicious teriyaki sauce.  I really enjoyed the flavor that the grapefruit juice gave to the sauce, it was very unique. The sauce combines ingredients such as soy sauce, grapefruit juice, vinegar, and hoisin sauce. It also gets a lot of its flavor from garlic and ginger. If you would prefer not to deep fry the wings they can be baked or grilled as well. You could also make boneless wings and coat them with this sauce. Enjoy.

3-4lbs chicken wings (separated at the joint, wing tips discarded)
