Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Wings Preparation

  • 1 kg fresh chicken wings, separated into drumettes and flats

Dry Rub and Seasoning

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder (natural gelling agent)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon paprika (natural)

Finishing Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Wings: Pat the chicken wings completely dry with paper towels to remove all moisture. Separate wings into drumettes and flats if they are whole to ensure even cooking.
  2. Season and Coat: In a large bowl, mix baking powder (natural gelling agent), salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss the wings in this mixture until evenly coated, which will help dry the skin and create crunch.
  3. Arrange on a Rack: Place a wire rack over a baking sheet and arrange the wings in a single layer without touching each other. This allows air circulation for even cooking and crispness.
  4. Bake to Perfection: Bake in a preheated oven at 250°C (480°F) for 30 minutes. Then carefully flip each wing and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes at 220°C (430°F) until crispy on the outside and juicy inside.
  5. Add Flavorful Finish: Once baked, toss the wings in a mixture of vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), apple cider vinegar (natural), and olive oil to add depth of flavor and a glossy finish.

Notes

  • Dry wings thoroughly before seasoning to achieve maximum crispiness.
  • Using a wire rack improves crisping by allowing heat to circulate evenly.
  • Do not omit the baking powder (natural gelling agent) as it is crucial for the signature crunch.
  • Flip wings carefully halfway through baking for uniform crispness.
  • Toss wings with the finishing sauce immediately after baking while still warm to help flavors adhere.
