Tebasaki yakitori

(手羽先, Chicken Wings Yakitori)

Tebasaki is a traditional yakitori dish made with chicken wings as the main ingredient. In order to prepare the dish, the wings are placed on skewers, then grilled, or in some cases, deep-fried until done (especially in Nagoya). The wings are usually seasoned only with salt and pepper in order to better savor the crispy skin, and they typically come in butterflied pairs on a skewer.


If desired, the dish can be accompanied by lime wedges on the side. Tebasaki can often be found in izakaya bars.
