Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

4 pounds chicken wings (, halved at joints, wingtips discarded)
2 Tablespoons baking powder (*aluminum free)
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cracker black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/3 cup Frank's Wings Hot Sauce
1 1/2 cups light brown sugar
1 Tablespoon water

Steps:

Adjust your oven rack to the upper-middle position. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack (I use a cooling rack) on top. Spray the rack with non-stick spray.
Use paper towels to pat the wings dry and place them in a large bowl. It's important to dry them REALLY well!
Combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and baking powder in a small bowl. Then sprinkle the seasoning over the wings, tossing to evenly coat.
Arrange wings, skin side up, in single layer on prepared wire rack.
Bake on the upper middle oven rack, turning every 20 minutes until wings are crispy and browned. The total cook time will depend on the size of the wings but may take up to 1 hour.
Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes. Transfer wings to bowl and toss with sauce.

BLOW YOUR MIND BAKED CHICKEN WINGS

This recipe was on the television show "The Chew" by Daphne Oz. It is my favorite recipe from the show. I serve it with my recipe for simple Asian pea rice.

Categories Chicken

Time 1h

Yield 6 wings, 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

2 lbs chicken wings, tips removed
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
1 bunch green onion, white and green parts separated and sliced
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup honey
1 lime, juiced
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
salt, as needed
ground black pepper, as needed

Steps:

Put the chicken wings on a greased baking sheet with sides. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a medium-size saucepan put the oil, garlic, ginger, chili flakes, and white part of the green onion. Heat over medium-high heat for about one minute.
Add the soy sauce, honey, lime juice, and sesame seed oil. Bring mixture to a boil. Make a slurry by combining the cornstarch and water.Add the slurry to the saucepan and cook just until the sauce thickens, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
After 20 minutes of cooking the chicken, remove from the oven and pour the sauce over the chicken (or dip each chicken wing in the sauce). Bake the chicken at least 20 minutes until the wings are cooked through. Serve garnished with the green part of the onion.
Notes: I think that the original recipe called for 2 teaspoons red chili flakes, but that might have been too hot for me. I cooked the wings longer than the second 20 minutes to really get the sauce more baked into the chicken.

Tips for Making the Best Baked Chicken Wings:

Choose the right chicken wings: Look for plump, meaty chicken wings with smooth, unblemished skin.
Dry the chicken wings thoroughly: Pat the wings dry with paper towels before coating them with spices. This will help the spices adhere to the wings and prevent them from becoming soggy.
Use a flavorful spice blend: Experiment with different spice blends to find one that you like. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, and chili powder.
Let the chicken wings marinate for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors of the spices to penetrate the chicken.
Bake the chicken wings at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy outer layer and a juicy interior.
Serve the chicken wings with your favorite dipping sauce: Ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, and honey mustard are all popular choices.

Conclusion:

Baked chicken wings are a delicious and easy appetizer or main course. They can be customized to your liking, and they are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying dish, give these baked chicken wings a try!
