Ingredients

• 2 pounds chicken wings
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 cup sugar-free ketchup
• 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon liquid smoke
• 1 teaspoon chili powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix the chicken wings with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper until the wings are well coated.

Step 3

Place the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, turning once halfway through.

Step 4

While the wings are baking, prepare the sugar-free barbecue sauce. In a small saucepan, combine sugar-free ketchup, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, and chili powder.

Step 5

Bring the sauce mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, then reduce the heat to low and let it cook for about 10 minutes. Adjust the seasoning to taste if necessary.

Step 6

Remove the baked wings from the oven and transfer them to a large bowl.

Step 7

Pour the prepared sugar-free barbecue sauce over the wings and toss to ensure each wing is evenly coated.

Step 8

Return the sauced wings to the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the sauce is sticky and the wings are cooked through.

Step 9

Serve the sugar-free barbecue chicken wings hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
