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
- Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F. Lightly coat a large rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.
- In a sizable mixing bowl, combine the baking powder, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Incorporate the chicken wings, tossing them until they are thoroughly coated. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Cook in the oven for 20 minutes, or until the skin turns golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F when checked with an instant-read thermometer. Allow the wings to cool for 10 minutes.
- Move the wings to a large mixing bowl, making sure to keep the drippings.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted butter and the reserved drippings. Pour this mixture over the chicken wings, tossing to ensure they are evenly coated. Serve right away.
Notes
TECHNIQUE TIP: Ensure chicken wings are patted completely dry before baking to achieve crispy skin.
STORAGE: Store leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best texture.
