Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Cayenne pepper (optional)
- 1 as needed Olive oil spray
- 1 optional Lemon wedges (for serving)
- 1 optional Chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top; this will allow air to circulate around the wings and help them become crispy.
Split the chicken wings at the joint, removing the wing tips if desired, and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels. Removing as much moisture as possible will help them crisp up in the oven.
In a large bowl, mix together the baking powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using).
Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss them well to ensure each wing is evenly coated with the seasoning mix.
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack. Make sure the wings do not touch each other to ensure even cooking.
Lightly spray the wings with olive oil to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip the wings and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and crispy. Cooking times may vary slightly depending on the size of the wings.
Once cooked, remove the wings from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the rack.
Serve the wings hot, garnished with chopped parsley and lemon wedges, if desired.
