Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
In a large bowl, combine the baking powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. This will help them become crispy.
Add the chicken wings to the bowl with the spice mix and toss them until they are evenly coated.
Drizzle the olive oil over the coated wings and toss again to ensure they are well coated with oil.
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack, skin side up. Ensure they are not touching each other for even cooking.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, then flip them over. Continue baking for an additional 20 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the wings hot with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce, celery sticks, and enjoy!
