Ingredients
  

  • 3 pounds chicken Wings
  • 1 tablespoon garlic Powder
  • 2 tablespoon onion Powder
  • 2 teaspoon paprika

Instructions
 

  • Season chicken wings with salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, thyme and oregano. Gently massage seasonings into the wings.

  • Sprinkle the wings with 1 -2 tablespoons of non-aluminum baking powder (don’t use baking soda) toss to coat each wing lightly.
  • Place wings on top of a cooling rack inside a baking sheet. (You want the fat to fall away from the wings.  You don’t want to cook the wings in the fat)
  • Bake the wings, uncovered, on the top rack of your oven for 40 minutes at 250°
  • Remove from the oven and turn oven up to 450° F.
  • Once the oven is ready, put the wings back in oven and cook on the top rack for 30 minutes - rotating half way ( at about 15- 20 minutes)
  • After 30 minutes remove from the oven and brush wings with Spicy BBQ sauce. (or you can use store bought) Place back in oven (top rack) for another 10 minutes or until crispy.  
  • Let rest for 5 -10 minutes after done cooking and serve with blue cheese or ranch dressing.
