Ingredients
- 16 pieces chicken wing sections
- 240 ml low-fat buttermilk
- 120 g whole wheat flour
- 60 g cornmeal
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 0.5 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 1 bottle extra virgin olive oil spray
- 2 tbsp parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set a wire rack on top of it.
Step 2
In a large bowl, add the chicken wing sections and pour the buttermilk over them. Ensure all pieces are well-coated. Let them marinate while you prepare the dry mixture.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, mix together whole wheat flour, cornmeal, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and salt.
Step 4
One by one, remove each wing piece from the buttermilk and coat thoroughly with the flour mixture, pressing lightly to ensure it adheres. Shake off any excess mixture.
Step 5
Place the coated wings on the prepared wire rack, ensuring they are not touching each other to allow even cooking.
Step 6
Spray each wing lightly with extra virgin olive oil spray, which will help them crisp up while baking.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, carefully flip the wings and spray again lightly with olive oil.
Step 8
Continue to bake for another 15 minutes until wings are golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let them rest for a couple of minutes before garnishing with freshly chopped parsley.
Step 10
Serve hot, and enjoy your heart-healthy crispy wing dings with your favorite dipping sauce.
