- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat 2 pounds chicken wings dry with paper towels—dry skin gets crispier.

In a large bowl, toss wings with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper until evenly coated.

Arrange wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with foil. Bake for 40 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.

Brush 1 cup barbecue sauce over both sides of each wing. Return to oven and bake 10 more minutes, until sauce is sticky and caramelized.

Let wings rest 5 minutes before serving. Optional: sprinkle with chopped parsley or extra black pepper.
