Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Add olive oil and toss until the wings are evenly coated with the spices and oil.
Arrange the chicken wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack. Ensure they are not touching each other to allow for even cooking.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Flip them over and bake for another 20 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
While the wings are baking, heat the barbecue sauce in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally, until warm.
Once the wings are cooked, remove them from the oven and brush generously with the warm barbecue sauce on all sides.
Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes to allow the sauce to caramelize and adhere to the wings.
Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm with additional barbecue sauce on the side for dipping, if desired.
