    Crispy Baked Chicken Wings-2GAME DAY SNACKS! I’m SO into game day snacks. I’m definitely more into game day snacks than the actual game. Who’s with me?

    Sorry. I try. Kind of.

    Crispy Baked Chicken Wings-5These wings tho. Yaaaaaaas. I’m SO into these wings. Mainly for two reasons.

    1. They’re not AS messy as the normal covered-in-sauce-get-all-over-everything wings.
    2. They’re ridiculously easy to make.
    3. They’re. So. Good.

    Ok, I lied. That was three things. Moral of the story is, make these wings.

    Crispy Baked Chicken WingsAll you gotta do is toss ’em with some spices, pop ’em in the oven, whip up some dipping sauce, and you’re golden.

    Crispy Baked Chicken Wings-4Don’t be afraid to double the recipe. Your friends will thank you.

    Description

    These crispy baked chicken wings are super simple to make and make the best game day appetizer. 


    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 2 pounds chicken wings
    • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
    • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

    For the Sriracha Ranch Dipping Sauce

    • 1/4 cup greek yogurt
    • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
    • 1/4 cup buttermilk
    • 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
    • 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
    • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
    • 1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice
    • 1–2 teaspoons Sriracha Sauce

    Instructions

    1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place the wings in a large bowl and add all the spices. Using clean hands, toss well until all the chicken is well coated.
    2. Place the wings on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake for 60-70 minutes until or until crispy.
    3. While the chicken bakes, make the dipping sauce. Combine all the ingredients together in a bowl and whisk well. Store in the fridge until ready to use. Once chicken is done, serve immediately with the dipping sauce.

    Notes

    *The dipping sauce makes a lot. If you double the wings recipe, keep the same amount of ingredients for the sauce. I like to keep extra sauce in the fridge for the week for dipping veggies, etc.

      MAKE THESE ASAP! These are so insanely good. I made them for the first time for our super bowl party. They were an instant hit and disappeared fast!! Great flavor. Super crispy. I should have checked mine about 5 minutes before my 60 min timer as my oven runs hot and a few smaller wings were overdone. The larger ones were perfect though. Make a double batch or you’ll be sad you didn’t!

      These are excellent! My family loves them. They make this sticky coating when you bake them and they are delicious.

      Do you think frozen wings would be acceptable for this recipe? Was thinking of trying your flavoring spices and utilizing air fryer with frozen wings! These look great 🙂

      Laney,

      These wings were outstanding! I think the greatest tip that I learned on your IG story was to pat dry, and then pat dry again. They came out so crispy and full of flavor. I had marinated them for 2 hours (because I had the time) in the dry rub and cooked on 2 parchment lined cookie sheets on 2 separate racks. Mid-way through the cooking time I took them out, tossed them around and switched the racks to evenly cook the 2 sheets. They didn’t need a sauce, but I did make it and it was delicious.
