Ingredients

• 2 pounds Chicken wings
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 cup Low-sugar ketchup
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon Liquid smoke
• 2 tablespoons Stevia or other low-carb sweetener

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Stir to mix well.

Step 3

Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning mixture.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they are crispy and golden brown.

Step 6

While the wings are baking, prepare the low-carb BBQ sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the low-sugar ketchup, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, and stevia. Stir well to combine.

Step 7

Bring the sauce to a simmer, reduce the heat to low, and let it cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.

Step 8

Once the wings are cooked, remove them from the oven. Brush them generously with the prepared BBQ sauce or toss them in a bowl with the sauce to coat evenly.

Step 9

Return the sauced wings to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes to caramelize the sauce.

Step 10

Remove the wings from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Step 11

Serve the wings hot with extra BBQ sauce on the side if desired.
