Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Chicken wings
- 2 tablespoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 cup Low-carb BBQ sauce
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and place a wire rack over a baking sheet. Line the sheet with aluminum foil to catch drips and facilitate easy cleanup.
In a large bowl, combine baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and onion powder. This mixture will help create a crispy coating for the wings.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove any moisture. This is crucial for achieving a crispy texture.
Toss the wings in the bowl with the baking powder mixture, ensuring each wing is evenly coated.
Place the wings on the prepared wire rack in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching each other. This allows heat to circulate evenly.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, flip them over and continue baking for another 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
While the wings are baking, prepare the BBQ sauce. If needed, warm the sauce slightly in a small saucepan over low heat to make it easier to coat the wings.
Once the wings are cooked, remove them from the oven and allow them to rest for 5 minutes.
Transfer the wings to a large bowl and pour the low-carb BBQ sauce over them. Toss the wings gently to ensure they are thoroughly coated in the sauce.
Serve the wings immediately with your choice of low-carb side dishes or enjoy them on their own. They are perfect for parties, game days, or as a delicious appetizer!
