Steps:
- Mix together everything but the chicken wings in a large baking dish. Add the chicken wings and turn to coat, then cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or as long as overnight. Turn the wings occasionally in the marinade.
- Start a charcoal or wood fire or preheat a gas grill or broiler; the fire should be only moderately hot and the rack about 6 inches from the heat source. If you are going to broil the wings, line your pan with foil.
- Remove the wings from the marinade and put on the grill or in the broiler. Cook for about 10 minutes on each side, remove from the heat, and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Wash the chicken wings and wipe dry. Cut off the wing tips. Bend each wing until you can see the joint, then cut through with a sharp knife. Rub each piece with salt.
- Mix the grated ginger and most of the spring onions with the sake, soy and mirin. Toss the chicken wings in the marinade until well coated, cover with plastic film and leave for at least 30 minutes.
- Heat the grill or a cast-iron griddle. Drain the wings, reserving the marinade, and cook on both sides until half cooked, for around 10 minutes. Coat in the marinade once more, then cook for a further 10 minutes, or until golden and tender (chicken always takes longer to cook than you think), turning once or twice. Scatter with the remaining spring onions and serve with lemon wedges and steamed rice.
Tips:
- To achieve crispy chicken wings, pat them dry before frying. This will help remove excess moisture and prevent the wings from steaming instead of frying.
- Use a deep fryer or a large pot with high sides to fry the chicken wings. This will prevent oil splatters and keep your kitchen clean.
- Fry the chicken wings in small batches to prevent overcrowding and ensure even cooking.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken wings. They are fully cooked when they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Serve the chicken wings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, and honey mustard.
