Ingredients

  • 3 pounds chicken wings w/o wing tips (drummetes) or 3.5 pounds with tips
  • 2 T baking POWDER (NOT baking soda !!)
  • 2 T Old Bay seasoning
  • Old Bay Hot Sauce, or your favorite hot sauce

Instructions

  • In a large Ziploc bag shake the Old Bay and baking powder together.
  • Dry the chicken wings with paper towels and place in the Ziploc bag. Shake to thoroughly coat.
  • Preheat the oven to 250°F. You'll need racks on lower middle and upper middle rack positions.
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Place a wire rack onto pan and spray it with a non-stick spray or brush olive oil over it.
  • Place wing pieces on rack so they don't touch. Place pan on lower middle rack for 30 minutes.
  • Increase heat to 425°F and place pan on upper middle rack to finish cooking for approximately 40 more minutes. Rotate pan 180° at the 20 minute(halfway) mark and continue to cook until crispy, another 15-20 minutes. Check after 10-15 minutes for golden and crispy texture. *Temperature should be at least 165 °F.
  • Rest for 5 minutes on the rack before removing to a serving bowl. Either coat with your desired hot sauce within the bowl or allow people to sauce it up themselves, individually.
