Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 cup BBQ sauce your favorite
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) for optimal crispy skin.
- Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to help them crisp up nicely in the oven.
- In a large bowl, toss the wings with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika, making sure every wing is coated evenly with the seasonings.
- Place the wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
- Bake the wings in the preheated oven for about 40-45 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they reach a lovely golden brown.
- Remove the wings from the oven and toss them in your favorite BBQ sauce until fully coated.
- Return the wings to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes, allowing the BBQ sauce to caramelize and stick nicely.
- Remove from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, and serve with extra BBQ sauce on the side for dipping.
