Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1.5 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet and lightly coat it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. This will help them get extra crispy in the oven.
Add the chicken wings to the bowl with the seasoning mix, ensuring each wing is evenly coated with the mixture.
Arrange the seasoned wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack. Make sure the wings are not touching each other to allow for even cooking.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25 minutes, then turn the wings over to promote even crisping.
Continue to roast the wings for an additional 25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. This will allow them to crisp up even more as they cool slightly.
Serve the low fat crispy roasted chicken wings immediately with your favorite sauce or dip.
