Description
Crispy Baked Ranch Chicken Wings are a crowd-pleasing appetizer with a crunchy exterior and juicy interior, seasoned with ranch herbs and spices.
Ingredients
- 2 pound chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and place an oven-safe wire rack on top.
2. Pat the chicken wings very dry with paper towels.
3. In a large bowl, toss the dried chicken wings with baking powder, salt, and black pepper until they are evenly coated.
4. Drizzle the olive oil over the wings and toss again to ensure they are lightly coated. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared wire rack.
5. Bake the wings for 45-50 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
6. In the last 10 minutes of baking, increase the oven temperature to 425°F to get them extra crispy.
7. Remove the wings from the oven and toss them in a clean large bowl with the ranch seasoning mix until they are fully coated. Serve hot.
Notes
Choose fresh, high-quality chicken wings for best results.
Thoroughly patting the wings dry is crucial for achieving crispiness.
Cooking times may vary slightly depending on wing size and thickness.
Feel free to experiment with other spice blends or flavorings.
