Dry Rub Baked Chicken Wings
Ingredients
2 pounds chicken wings
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) so it’s nice and hot when your wings go in.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, cayenne pepper, and dried thyme. Give it a good stir to combine everything into one flavorful dry rub.
3. Add the chicken wings to the bowl. Toss them around so each wing gets completely coated with all those spices and oil. Make sure every bit gets some love.
4. Arrange the wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This helps them get crispy and makes cleanup a breeze.
5. Slide the wings into your preheated oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, flipping them over about halfway through. You want them crisp and golden brown all over.
6. Take the wings out, serve them up hot, and enjoy every tasty bite!
