Ingredients
Equipment Needed:
✔ Large baking sheet
✔ Aluminum foil
✔ Large mixing bowl
Main Ingredients:
🧈 5 tbsp unsalted butter (for greasing the baking sheet)
🌶 2 ½ tbsp smoked paprika
🌶 1 tsp chili powder
🧄 2 tsp garlic powder
🧂 1 tsp salt
⚫ 1 tsp black pepper
🌾 ⅓ cup flour
🍗 10-15 chicken wings
Instructions
🔥 Step 1: Prepare the Oven and Baking Sheet
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and coat it with butter to prevent sticking. For extra non-stick security, you can also lightly spray it with cooking spray.
🥣 Step 2: Make the Dry Rub
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, smoked paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined. This spice mix gives the wings their signature smoky, slightly spicy flavor.
🍗 Step 3: Coat the Chicken Wings
Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss them thoroughly to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture. Use your hands or a spoon to mix well.
🔥 Step 4: Bake to Crispy Perfection
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they don’t overlap. This helps them bake evenly.
Bake for 30 minutes, then flip each wing over using tongs.
Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the wings are golden brown, crispy, and fully cooked.
💡 Pro Tip: Want extra crunch? Turn on the broiler for the last 2-3 minutes, but keep an eye on them to prevent burning!
Serving Suggestions
🧀 Serve hot with celery sticks, carrot sticks, and blue cheese or ranch dressing.
🌿 Garnish with freshly chopped chives or parsley for extra flavor and color.
🍽 Looking for a twist?
Drizzle with honey and soy sauce for a sweet-savory variation.
Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese right after baking for an Italian-inspired touch.
