Teriyaki Chicken Wing And Vegetable Skewers Recipes

TERIYAKI CHICKEN-WING AND VEGETABLE SKEWERS

Steps:

• Soak 28 seven-inch bamboo skewers in water 30 minutes; drain. Meanwhile, combine soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, ginger, and garlic in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced to 2/3 cup, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon pepper; let cool.
• Thread each chicken wing onto a skewer. Thread 2 pieces each eggplant and scallion onto skewers. Thread 2 pieces each shiitake and scallion onto skewers. Thread shishitos 4 per skewer. Divide enokis into 12 equal bundles; wrap each in a piece of bacon, then thread 3 per skewer. Thread asparagus 5 per skewer. Lightly brush eggplant, shiitake, and asparagus skewers with oil.
• Preheat grill for direct-heat cooking (medium-high on a gas grill). Lightly brush grates with oil. Grill chicken skewers 5 minutes. Flip chicken and add eggplant and shiitake skewers; grill 5 minutes more. Flip chicken, eggplant, and shiitake skewers, and add shishito, bacon-wrapped enoki, and asparagus skewers; continue to grill until chicken is just cooked through, eggplant and shiitakes are tender, bacon is crisp and browned, and shishitos and asparagus are crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes more. In the last minute of cooking, brush chicken, eggplant, and shiitake skewers with soy mixture a few times while flipping repeatedly.
• Remove skewers from grill. Brush chicken, eggplant, and shiitake skewers with more soy mixture, then sprinkle with sesame seeds. Sprinkle shishito, enoki, and asparagus skewers with flaky salt. Serve, with lemon wedges on the side.

SHEET PAN CHICKEN TERIYAKI AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil and grease with nonstick cooking spray.
• Cut the chicken and bell pepper into 1-inch strips. Thinly slice the carrots lengthwise, then cut into 1-inch batons. Cut the broccoli into small florets.
• Transfer the chicken strips to a medium bowl, add the teriyaki sauce and a pinch each of salt and pepper and toss to combine.
• Combine the peppers, carrots, broccoli and sugar snap peas in a large bowl. Add the olive oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper and toss well to combine. Arrange the chicken and vegetables on the prepared baking sheet, spreading them into an even layer with as little overlap as possible.
• Bake until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Divide the chicken and vegetables among serving plates. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve alongside rice or noodles, if desired.
• Whisk together the soy sauce, pineapple juice, brown sugar, garlic, ginger and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the sugar has completely dissolved.
• Whisk together the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl to make a slurry. Whisk the slurry into the sauce and simmer until it has thickened to the consistency of syrup, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from the heat, pour into a small heatproof bowl and let cool. Use right away or refrigerate for up to 3 days.
