Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Wings
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for baking the wings evenly and getting a crispy texture.
- Season Wings: In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika ensuring each wing is well coated with the seasoning.
- Arrange Wings: Place the seasoned wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking and allow for crisp baking.
- Bake Wings: Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25 minutes to cook through and start developing a crispy skin.
- Apply Barbecue Sauce: Remove the wings from the oven and brush them evenly with barbecue sauce to add a flavorful glaze.
- Finish Baking: Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes to caramelize the barbecue sauce and finish cooking.
- Serve: Serve the baked chicken wings hot and enjoy their crispy, tangy, and savory flavor.
Notes
- For extra crispy wings, you can broil them for 2-3 minutes after the final bake, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
- Adjust the amount of barbecue sauce to your liking or substitute with your favorite wing sauce.
- Make sure not to overcrowd the baking sheet to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- These wings can also be prepared in an air fryer for a quicker cooking time.
