Ingredients
  

Chicken Wings
  • 2 lbs Chicken wings
Dry Rub Seasoning
  • 2 tsp Paprika
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp Dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp Dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp Dried chili flakes
For Preparation
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil For greasing the baking tray

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Large baking tray
  • small bowl
  • Large bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F and grease a large baking tray with olive oil. Set the tray aside.
  2. In a small bowl, combine all the dry rub spices and stir them together.
  3. Pat the chicken wings completely dry and place them in a large bowl. Pour the dry spice rub over the wings and toss, or use your hands, to coat them fully.
  4. Place the coated wings on the greased baking tray. Do not overlap the wings so they bake evenly.
  5. Bake the wings in your preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes until they are cooked through and golden brown. Flip the wings over halfway through baking, around the 20-minute mark.
  6. Remove the wings from the oven and serve them with your preferred dipping sauces.

Notes

Pat the wings dry. Skipping this step means the dry rub will not stick well. If you use frozen wings, allow them to defrost completely before you start baking. Baking at 400 degrees F helps the wings get crispy and golden.
