Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the baking powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. This will help them become crispy.
Step 4
Add the chicken wings to the bowl with the spice mix and toss them until they are evenly coated.
Step 5
Drizzle the olive oil over the coated wings and toss again to ensure they are well coated with oil.
Step 6
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack, skin side up. Ensure they are not touching each other for even cooking.
Step 7
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, then flip them over. Continue baking for an additional 20 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 8
Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve the wings hot with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce, celery sticks, and enjoy!
