Enjoy these crispy and flavorful baked chicken wings, perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and helps achieve a crispy texture.
Line a baking sheet with foil and place the butter on it. Put the sheet in the oven to melt the butter.
Melting the butter on the sheet ensures even coating of the wings.
In a mixing bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, cayenne pepper, and flour.
Mixing the spices with the flour ensures even distribution on the wings.
Place the chicken wings in a plastic bag, add the seasoning mix, and shake well to coat evenly.
Shaking in a bag makes coating quick and mess-free.
Arrange the coated wings on the baking sheet with melted butter, turning them to coat in the butter.
Ensure the wings are spaced out for even cooking.
Bake the wings in the oven for 25 minutes.
Avoid opening the oven frequently to maintain a consistent temperature.
Flip the wings over and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until crispy.
Flipping ensures both sides are evenly crispy.
Serve the wings as is or toss them in your favorite sauce before serving.
Serve with a side of celery sticks and blue cheese dressing for a classic touch.
