Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds chicken wings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Method
 

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare Wings: Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure maximum crispiness.
  3. Seasoning Mix: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
  4. Coat Wings: Add the wings to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mix.
  5. Bake Wings: Arrange the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  6. Glaze Wings: In a small bowl, mix honey and hot sauce. Brush the glaze over the wings and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes.
  7. Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Variations: For a milder flavor, reduce the cayenne pepper or omit it entirely.
  • Substitutions: Use maple syrup instead of honey for a different taste.
  • Extra Crunch: For even crispier wings, place them under the broiler for 2-3 minutes after baking.
