Description

A classic favorite, chicken wings are versatile, delicious, and perfect for any occasion. This guide covers a basic recipe that can be adapted with various sauces and flavors to suit any palate.


Ingredients

▢1 tablespoon baking powder
▢2 teaspoons ground black pepper
▢2 teaspoons paprika
▢2 teaspoons garlic powder
▢1 teaspoon kosher salt
▢4 pounds chicken wings split with tips removed, patted dry (1.8 kg)
▢¼ cup unsalted butter melted (60ml)


Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Grease a large rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the baking powder, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Add the chicken wings and toss until well-coated. Spread the wings into an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes until the skins are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F on an instant-read thermometer. Let cool for 10 minutes.
Transfer the wings to a large mixing bowl, reserving the drippings.

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter and reserved drippings. Add the butter mixture to the bowl with the chicken wings, tossing to coat. Serve immediately. 

Notes

  • Ensure wings are fully thawed and dry before seasoning for the crispiest result.
  • Adjust cooking time based on the size of the wings.
  • For spicier wings, add chili powder or cayenne pepper to the seasoning mix.
  • Gluten-Free (check sauce ingredients).
