Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. This allows the wings to cook evenly and become extra crispy.
In a large mixing bowl, add the chicken wings and pat them dry with paper towels. Removing moisture helps achieve a crispier texture.
In a small bowl, combine the baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and dried thyme. Mix well to ensure even distribution.
Sprinkle the spice blend over the chicken wings, ensuring all the wings are coated evenly.
Drizzle the olive oil and fresh lemon juice over the wings and toss to coat thoroughly.
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack, ensuring not to overcrowd them to allow air to circulate.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through cooking for even crisping.
Once the wings are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the wings hot with your favorite low-sodium dipping sauce or enjoy them on their own.
