Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat the Oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the thawed chicken wings with olive oil, garlic powder, ground ginger, and black pepper until well-coated.
  3. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the wings in a single layer and bake for 15 minutes.
  4. Flip the wings and bake for an additional 15 minutes until golden and aromatic.
  5. In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, pineapple juice, and soy sauce. Heat until the sugar dissolves, then simmer uncovered for 3-5 minutes.
  6. Remove wings from the oven and dunk into the warm glaze. Ensure they are evenly coated.
  7. Bake the glazed wings for an additional 10 minutes. Optionally, broil for 2-3 minutes for extra crispiness.
  8. Allow to cool for 1 minute before serving with pineapple slices or lime wedges.
