• Leaves from 1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped

Teriyaki Sauce:

• 1 cup low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 cup grapefruit juice
• 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 3 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 fresh, hot red Chile, halved
• 5 garlic cloves, halved
• 1 (2 inch) piece fresh ginger, smashed with the side of a large knife

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Season the chicken wings with salt and pepper. Lay the wings in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes or until the skin gets crispy and the wings are cooked through.

Meanwhile, combine the teriyaki sauce ingredients in a large saucepan. Simmer over low heat and reduce until slightly thickened. Pour the sauce into a large bowl. Dump the wings into the bowl and toss to coat them with the sauce.
