Freshly prepared crispy chicken wings

Crispy and flavorful chicken wings perfect for snacks or game day, featuring a simple blend of spices and a tangy sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup hot sauce
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp honey (optional)
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top.
  2. In a large bowl, toss chicken wings with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika until evenly coated.
  3. Arrange wings in a single layer on the wire rack.
  4. Bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until wings are crispy and cooked through.
  5. Meanwhile, melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in hot sauce and honey (if using) until combined.
  6. Remove wings from oven and toss them in the hot sauce mixture until well coated.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

For extra crispiness, pat wings dry before seasoning and bake on a wire rack to allow air circulation.
