Crispy Dry Rub Chicken Wings

Perfectly Spiced Crispy Chicken Wings

Ingredients:

2 pounds chicken wings

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust for spice preference)

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet to allow for maximum crispiness. 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, and dried oregano. Mix well to create a dry rub.

Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. This step is crucial for achieving crispiness. 

Add the chicken wings to the bowl with the dry rub and toss until the wings are evenly coated with the mixture.

Arrange the wings in a single layer on the wire rack, making sure they are not touching. 

Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.

Once cooked, remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them as is or toss them in your favorite sauce!
