Description

Deliciously crispy chicken wings seasoned with a flavorful dry rub, perfect for game day or family nights.


Ingredients

  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (or air fryer to 400°F).
  2. Toss chicken wings with olive oil in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Combine all spices in a small bowl and sprinkle over the wings, mixing until well-coated.
  4. For oven baking: Arrange wings on a tray in a single layer, skin side up, and bake for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway.
  5. For air frying: Place wings in a single layer in the basket and cook for 25-30 minutes, shaking halfway.
  6. Once golden and crispy, remove wings from heat and enjoy hot.

Notes

For extra crispiness, consider broiling the wings for the last 2-3 minutes when baking.
