Ready in under an hour, these baked chicken wings are the perfect balance of savory, zesty, and utterly crave-worthy.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Place an oven-safe wire rack on top of the baking sheet to allow for even airflow.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help them crisp up while baking.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil until evenly coated.
In a small bowl, mix together the ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the chicken wings and toss them in the bowl until all the pieces are evenly coated.
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack, making sure they are not touching each other.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping. The wings should be golden brown and fully cooked with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
If desired, sprinkle the wings with freshly chopped parsley for added color and flavor.
Serve the garlic ranch chicken wings hot with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch or blue cheese dressing. Enjoy!
