Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 cup Keto-friendly BBQ sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet to allow air circulation around the wings.
In a large mixing bowl, combine baking powder, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture, which helps them achieve extra crispiness.
Add the chicken wings to the bowl of seasoning and toss until they are evenly coated.
Arrange the wings on the wire rack in a single layer, making sure they do not touch each other.
Drizzle the wings with olive oil to help crisp up the skin even more during baking.
Bake the chicken wings in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy, flipping them halfway through the cooking time.
While the wings are baking, heat the Keto-friendly BBQ sauce in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally.
Once the wings are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Transfer the warm chicken wings to a large bowl and pour the warmed BBQ sauce over them. Carefully toss the wings until they're evenly covered in the sauce.
Serve the Keto BBQ chicken wings hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
