  • Author: ushinzomr

Description

These oven-baked chicken wings are crispy, juicy, and incredibly easy to make. Perfect for family gatherings or game day, they will be a hit with everyone!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds chicken wings
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Your favorite wing sauce (Buffalo, BBQ, etc.) for tossing

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the baking powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper.
  3. Add the chicken wings to the bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss until the wings are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
  4. Arrange the wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a wire rack. Make sure they are not touching each other for maximum crispiness.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
  6. Remove from the oven and toss in your favorite wing sauce before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For extra crispy wings, consider broiling them for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking time.
  • Make sure to pat the wings dry with paper towels before seasoning them to help achieve a crispy texture.
  • Feel free to adjust the spices to your taste or add other seasonings you enjoy.
