Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons sake
• 2 tablespoons mirin or honey
• 3 scallions, trimmed and roughly chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
• 1 inch-long piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
• 3 pounds chicken wings, wingtips removed, drumettes and wings separated.

Directions

1. In a large baking dish, mix together everything but chicken wings. Add wings and turn to coat, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or as long as overnight. Turn wings occasionally in marinade.

2. Start a charcoal or wood fire or preheat a gas grill or broiler; fire should be only moderately hot and rack should be about 6 inches from heat source. If you are going to broil the wings, line dish with foil.

3. Remove wings from marinade and put on grill or in broiler. Cook for about 10 minutes on each side, remove from heat, and serve within 20 minutes.
