# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 -
In a large bowl, whisk together pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger until the sugar dissolves.

Add chicken wings to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Arrange marinated wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Season with salt and black pepper. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked and the skin is golden.

While the wings bake, mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl to form a slurry. Pour the remaining marinade into a saucepan over medium heat. Add pineapple chunks and bring to a gentle simmer. Gradually pour in the cornstarch slurry, stirring continuously, and cook until the sauce is thickened.

Remove wings from oven. Transfer them to a serving bowl and toss thoroughly with the warm pineapple sauce. Serve immediately, garnished as desired.

For extra caramelization, broil the wings for an additional 1 to 2 minutes after baking.
