Ingredients

• 24 pieces Chicken wings
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon Dried oregano
• 1 tablespoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 4 pieces Lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with olive oil.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.

Step 3

Add the chicken wings to the bowl, ensuring they are evenly coated with the marinade. Allow to marinate for at least 10 minutes while the oven heats up.

Step 4

Arrange the marinated chicken wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the wings are golden brown and cooked through, turning halfway through the cooking time to ensure even crispness.

Step 6

For extra crispiness, place the wings under the broiler for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

Step 7

Remove the chicken wings from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter.

Step 8

Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for an added zing.
