Crispy Baked Chicken Wings

From the recipe collection of Tara Ippolito

These crispy baked chicken wings are so incredibly easy to make and absolutely delicious.

Air fryer chicken wings have become a favorite of mine around here.

I just love how easy they are to make and the wings really crispy up nicely.

The only problem with the air fryer is that it only works with small batches.

When I’m hosting a party or having people over to watch the big game, I need something that can make enough at one time for all of my guests.

That’s where these baked chicken wings come in. I never thought I’d find a recipe that would rival the air fryer but this is it!

These are so flavorful and nice and crispy all around. That’s because of the secret ingredient- baking powder.

The baking powder does something to the skin that comes to life in the oven and produces the best wings.

I love making chicken wings this way for a crowd. Everyone loves them and they’re always the first thing to go.

I hope you give this recipe a try. If you do, I know you’ll love them just as much as my family and I do.

Crispy Baked Chicken Wings Variations

I like this recipe as it is but here are some ways to change it up if you’d like to.

• Chicken- Instead of wings, this recipe works on chicken thighs and drumsticks, also. Just be sure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165° when it’s done if you’re using a bigger piece of meat.
• Baking Powder- The baking powder helps get the wings super crispy. If you don’t have baking powder, a little corn starch will work, too.

Instructions

First, pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel and add them to a large bowl.

Now, add the olive oil and season the wings with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, baking powder and chicken bullion.

Then, toss everything together until the chicken is evenly coated in the seasoning.

Next, place a wire rack on top of a baking sheet and spray it generously with cooking spray then lay the chicken wings down on the rack.

Then, place them in the oven for 30 minutes.

Next, flip the wings and place them back into the oven for another 30 minutes.

Now, take them out of the oven and let them rest on the rack for about 5 minutes.

Finally, serve warm with blue cheese/ ranch dressing and celery and enjoy!
