Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
- 1/4 cup hot sauce (for tossing)
- 1 tablespoon butter (melted, for tossing)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet to allow for even cooking.
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper. Toss until the wings are evenly coated.
- Arrange the wings in a single layer on the wire rack, making sure they are not touching each other.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the wings are crispy and golden brown, flipping them halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- While the wings are baking, mix the hot sauce and melted butter in a small bowl.
- Once the wings are done, remove them from the oven and immediately toss them in the hot sauce mixture until well coated.
- Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
Notes
- For extra crispy wings, make sure they are completely dry before seasoning.
- You can adjust the spices according to your taste preferences.
- Feel free to experiment with different sauces for tossing after baking.
