Baked BBQ Chicken Wings
Baked bbq chicken wings tossed in a sweet sauce and season with a simple, homemade bbq rub. Baked in the oven for ease during any day of the week!
Equipment
- Sheet pan with a wire rack
Ingredients
- 1.5 pound chicken wings
- 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
Seasoning
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven between 400℉ and 425℉. Not all ovens go above 400℉ but the hotter the oven, the crispier the wings will be. Place the wire rack in the oven without anything on it.
- Now, in a bowl combine the ingredients for the spice rub. Then, pat the chicken wings as dry as possible. Coat them in vegetable oil then pour the seasoning over the wings and toss them until evenly coated. Note, do not add seasoning until you're ready to place them in the oven. The salt will draw out moisture.
- Remove the wire rack from the oven, carefully. Spray with oil then place the chicken wings on the wire rack with at least an inch of space between each. Place the pan into the oven.
- Bake for 30 minutes then flip. Bake another 30 minutes and the wings should be finished cooking and crispy. Toss them in the barbecue sauce. You can serve them as is or place them bake in the oven for 10 minutes to make the sauce sticky. Note, you'll loose the crispiness if you place them back in the oven.
- Once they are cooled, serve and enjoy.
