I’ve been working on different ways to cook wings. I think I’ve found my favorite and it doesn’t involve the fryer or the grill. It’s baking them. Now, I generally from on baking something that isn’t a casserole or a big, juicy ribeye in a screaming hot cast iron skillet. That said, this was the second time cooking them in the oven and they came out great.
I took two pounds of wings, patted them dry and then dropped them into a large Ziploc bag. Inside the bag I had put:
- 1 Tbsp. Tone’s Cajun Seasoning
- 1 Tbsp. ground black pepper
- 1 Tbsp. ground cayenne
- 1 Tbsp. smoked jalapeño powder
- 1 Tbsp. garlic salt
- 1 Tbsp. baking powder
I’d read that baking powder would make the skin crispy. I shook them to get them coated and let them sit for 15 minutes. Next, I popped them into the oven at 250° F for 30 minutes. Then, I bumped it to 425° for 35 minutes.
After that put ’em on a plate and give them some sauce. Here I’m using buffalo sauce and some ranch. They were delicious and in keeping with my low carb eating pattern right now. It had a few from the baking powder and the sauces but was under 10.
