Whether youβre hosting a party or craving a flavor-packed meal, these ranch chicken wings are guaranteed to satisfy.
Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and place a wire rack on top. Lightly grease the rack with non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This step is crucial for achieving crispy skin.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken wings, olive oil, ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the wings are evenly coated in the seasoning mixture.
Arrange the seasoned chicken wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack, making sure they are not touching. This allows air to circulate for even cooking.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning them halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
Once the wings are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven. Check for doneness by ensuring the internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (74Β°C) using a meat thermometer.
Transfer the wings to a serving platter and garnish with chopped parsley, if desired. Serve hot with ranch dressing on the side for dipping.
