Ingredients:
INGREDIENTS | AMOUNT |
---|---|
Chicken wing pieces | 20 (flats and drumettes) |
Baking powder | 1 tablespoon |
Paprika | 1 teaspoon |
Black pepper | ½ teaspoon |
Salt | ½ teaspoon |
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
- In a bowl, combine the baking powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Toss the chicken wings in this mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Arrange the coated wings on a sprayed wire rack set over an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet. This allows air circulation and helps the wings crisp up.
- Bake the wings for 30 minutes at 450°F (232°C).
- After 30 minutes, flip the wings to ensure even cooking.
- Continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
