Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 pounds chicken wings
Coating Ingredients:
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Cooking Ingredients:
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
Instructions
- Blend ½ cup flour with 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika, plus ½ teaspoon salt and pepper in a shallow mixing bowl.
- Pat your chicken wings completely dry with paper towels to help them crisp perfectly.
- Roll each chicken wing thoroughly in the seasoned flour mixture, ensuring total coverage on all surfaces.
- Arrange the coated wings on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart so they can crisp evenly.
- Drizzle ¼ cup vegetable oil across the wings, making sure each piece gets a light coating.
- Position the baking sheet in a preheated 400°F oven, placing it on the center rack for maximum heat circulation.
- Roast your wings for 22 minutes, then carefully flip each piece using tongs to ensure balanced browning.
- Continue baking another 20-22 minutes until the wings reach a deep golden brown with crispy exterior edges.
- Check internal temperature reaches 165°F using a meat thermometer for safe consumption.
- Allow wings to rest 5 minutes after removing from oven to let juices redistribute and maintain crispiness.
Notes
- Pat chicken wings completely dry before coating to achieve maximum crispiness.
- Use a wire rack on the baking sheet to allow hot air circulation and prevent soggy bottoms.
- For gluten-free adaptation, replace wheat flour with almond flour or gluten-free breadcrumbs.
- Experiment with different seasoning blends like Cajun, ranch, or BBQ spice mixes to change flavor profiles.
