Crispy and flavorful BBQ chicken wings baked to perfection in the oven. These wings are coated with olive oil and seasoned simply with salt and pepper, then basted with tangy BBQ sauce for a perfect blend of smoky and sweet flavors. A great appetizer or snack for gatherings and game days.

Ingredients

Chicken Wings

  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Sauce and Garnish

  • 1 cup barbecue sauce (store-bought or homemade)
  • Optional: chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil to ensure easy cleanup and prevent sticking.
  2. Prep Wings: In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, and pepper until all the wings are evenly coated. This helps to crisp the skin while seasoning the wings.
  3. Arrange Wings: Spread the wings out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet so they cook evenly and get crispy.
  4. Bake Wings: Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes. Turn the wings over halfway through cooking to ensure even browning and crispiness on all sides.
  5. Apply BBQ Sauce: In the last 5 minutes of baking, brush the wings generously with barbecue sauce, then return them to the oven to let the sauce set and caramelize slightly.
  6. Final Toss and Garnish: Remove the wings from the oven and toss them in additional barbecue sauce if desired for extra flavor. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving to add a fresh, vibrant touch.

Notes

  • For extra crispy wings, you can broil them for 2-3 minutes at the end, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • Feel free to use your favorite homemade or store-bought BBQ sauce depending on your preferred flavor profile.
  • To save time, wings can be marinated in BBQ sauce for 1 hour before baking for deeper flavor.
  • Adjust salt and pepper amounts to your taste preferences.
