Ingredients

  • 2 lb chicken wings
  • 8 cloves garlic cloves
  • 2 red chili peppers
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat dry 2 lb chicken wings with paper towels, then toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 0.5 tsp black pepper in a large bowl.

  2. 2

    Arrange wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with foil. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden and crispy, flipping halfway.

  3. 3

    While wings bake, mince 8 garlic cloves and thinly slice 2 red chili peppers. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat.

  4. 4

    Add garlic and chili to the skillet; cook until fragrant and lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

  5. 5

    Toss the hot wings with the garlic-chili oil in a large bowl until evenly coated. Serve immediately.
