Tips to Make the Best Baked BBQ Chicken Wings:

1. Pat Wings Dry: Removing extra moisture ensures maximum crispiness in the oven.
2. Use Baking Powder: This is the secret to achieving that irresistible crispy skin without frying.
3. Line and Elevate: A wire rack helps air circulate all around the wings, leading to even browning.
4. Flip and Brush: Flipping halfway and glazing at the end allows the wings to caramelize beautifully.
5. Watch Closely Under the Broiler: The sauce can char quickly, so stay nearby to prevent burning.

Ingredients:

3 pounds chicken wings (all flats, all drums, or mixed)
½ cup sifted flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ cup of your favorite barbecue sauce

Directions:

1. Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the rack generously with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
2. Season the Wings: In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Coat the Chicken: Trim any excess skin from the wings, keeping most of it intact for crispness. Pat them dry thoroughly, then toss each wing in the flour mixture until fully coated.
4. Arrange for Baking: Place wings on the prepared rack close together but not touching, allowing air to flow.
5. Bake and Flip: Bake for 20 minutes, then flip each wing. Bake for an additional 10 minutes.
6. Broil with Sauce: Remove the tray and set the oven to broil. Brush each wing generously with barbecue sauce. Return to the oven and broil for about 5 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning.
7. Serve and Enjoy: Let the wings cool slightly before serving. Pair them with extra barbecue sauce for dipping if desired.
