Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet and spray the rack lightly with vegetable oil spray.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure the coating adheres properly.
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, mix the flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. In the second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In the third bowl, place the panko breadcrumbs.
Dredge each chicken wing in the seasoned flour, ensuring it is fully coated, then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally coat it in the panko breadcrumbs. Press the breadcrumbs onto the wings to create a thick, even coating.
Place the coated chicken wings onto the prepared wire rack, leaving some space between each piece for even cooking.
Lightly spray the tops of the wings with vegetable oil spray to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake the chicken wings in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip them over and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).
Remove the chicken wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the crispy panko crusted chicken wings hot with your favorite dipping sauce or as is!
