- 10 fresh whole chicken wings
- chicken wing dry rub, as needed, recipe follows
- sesame teriyaki sauce:
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- two cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon finely ground black pepper
- three scallions, cut on a diagonal

Steps:

with a sharp knife, cut the tips off the chicken wings and save them for stock. Slash The inside of the wing joint to help them cook more evenly, but don't cut them all the way through. Sprinkle liberally with the chicken wing dry rub. Set aside.
To make the sauce, mix the soy sauce and brown sugar together in a medium microwave safe bowl. Add the oil, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and pepper. Mix well. Microwave on high for one minute. Stir, and microwave on high for another 30 seconds. Set aside.
Prepare the grill for cooking over direct medium heat. Grill the wings for about 25 minutes, turning often. The wings are done when they are nicely browned and the juices run clear. Remove the wings to a platter. You may serve the wings whole but if you prefer to serve them in individual segments, cut them apart now. Transfer the wings to a bowl. Pour the sauce over the wings. Toss to coat well. To serve, transfer to a platter and top with scallions. Serves 10
