Sabrina’s Baked Chicken Wings Recipe

Baking wings in the oven makes them easy to enjoy at home and healthier than deep-frying, like they typically would be at a restaurant. These crowd-pleasing wings are roasted to crispy perfection with a flavorful coating that’s just as mouth-watering as anything you’d get at your favorite sports bar!

Chef’s Note

Crispy Baked Chicken Wings are the ultimate party wings! I prep them for the oven in no time, then bake them until you have nice crispy skin and tender insides. The flavors of garlic, onion, and chili are mixed into the crispy coating and go great with any number of your favorite dipping sauces. Plus, I make a few batches, tossing each batch in a different sauce for a variety of flavors for everyone to enjoy.

Can this be made ahead?

Yes, you can make these ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator overnight. Place them on a baking sheet and reheat them at 375 degrees until warmed-through at an internal temperature of 165.

What to Pair with

Hot and crispy wings make a great appetizer for your next game night, super bowl watch party, or family get-together. Put the chicken on a serving dish along with your favorite sauces like blue cheese dressing, BBQ sauce, or honey mustard. For a spicy sauce, you can also use Buffalo Sauce.

How to Store

  • Serve: Chicken wings shouldn’t be left at room temperature for more than 2 hours.
  • Store: You can save this mouth-watering chicken in the fridge to enjoy for 3-4 days.
  • Freeze: To freeze the Chicken Wings, put them in an airtight container or freezer bag. They’ll stay good for up to 6 months.

Variations

  • Spicy Chicken Wings: To make spicy chicken try drizzling some hot sauce over the chicken wings before serving. Add a little hot pepper sauce at a time to make sure you don’t add too much heat.
  • Sweet: To make sweeter chicken mix some brown sugar or ½ cup honey into the dry rub mixture.
  • BBQ Baked Chicken Wings: To make BBQ Chicken Wings bake the chicken as normal for 45 minutes. Then take the chicken out and drizzle BBQ sauce over the top before baking for the last 15 minutes.
  • Dry Rub Ingredients: You can add any number of your favorite seasonings to the rubbed baked chicken spice mixture. Oregano, rosemary, cumin, paprika, or basil would all add nice flavor.

  1. Sabrina, You have shared the most amazing recipes. My husband & I have made several of them & absolutely loved them. I have tried to post a comment complimenting you & how wonderful they turned out, but for some reason, my comments have been blocked. I have used appropriate language & been very complementary. Have I done something wrong?
