Preparation

  2. In a large bowl, mix together pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, ground ginger, and salt and pepper.
  3. Add the chicken wings to the bowl, tossing to coat them in the marinade.
  4. Arrange the wings on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

Notes

Marinate for at least 30 minutes for maximum flavor. For extra kick, add red pepper flakes to the marinade! Can be made vegan by swapping chicken wings for cauliflower florets.
