Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
- 2 tablespoons honey (optional, for a glaze)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce (optional, for a glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your broiler on high and position the oven rack about 6-8 inches below the heating element.
Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels to ensure they crisp up nicely.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using).
Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the chicken wings in a single layer on the rack, ensuring they are not touching.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler and cook for 10 minutes. Carefully flip the wings with tongs and broil for another 10 minutes or until they are golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
If using a honey-soy glaze, mix honey and soy sauce in a small bowl while the wings are cooking. Brush the glaze over the wings during the final 2 minutes of broiling for a sticky, flavorful finish.
Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce or side dishes.
