Ingredients
Scale
For the wings:
- 1 pound chicken wing portions
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
For the dry rub:
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon ground mustard
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon chili powder
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a rimmed sheet pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup. Place a wire baking rack on top of the sheet pan to allow air circulation around the wings for extra crispiness. - Prepare the chicken wings:
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This step helps remove excess moisture, which is key for crispy wings. - Coat with olive oil:
In a large mixing bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil until they are well-coated. - Make the dry rub:
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, ground mustard, paprika, salt, chili powder, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir until the spices are well blended. - Apply the dry rub:
Sprinkle the dry rub mixture evenly over the wings and toss them to coat thoroughly. You can also massage the rub into the wings to ensure even coverage. - Bake the wings:
Arrange the wings on the wire rack, skin side up, allowing air circulation for extra crispiness. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. - Flip and bake further:
After 20 minutes, flip the wings over and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the wings are golden and crispy. - Serve:
Serve the wings with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping. Enjoy your crispy, flavorful snack!
Notes
- Make sure to pat the wings dry before seasoning them to ensure a crispy texture.
- You can adjust the seasoning by adding more chili powder or red pepper flakes if you prefer spicier wings.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
