Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 cup sugar-free ketchup
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon liquid smoke
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
In a large bowl, mix the chicken wings with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper until the wings are well coated.
Place the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, turning once halfway through.
While the wings are baking, prepare the sugar-free barbecue sauce. In a small saucepan, combine sugar-free ketchup, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, and chili powder.
Bring the sauce mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, then reduce the heat to low and let it cook for about 10 minutes. Adjust the seasoning to taste if necessary.
Remove the baked wings from the oven and transfer them to a large bowl.
Pour the prepared sugar-free barbecue sauce over the wings and toss to ensure each wing is evenly coated.
Return the sauced wings to the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the sauce is sticky and the wings are cooked through.
Serve the sugar-free barbecue chicken wings hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
