Serves: 24-30 wings
Ingredients
  • 12-15 whole chicken wings
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ Tablespoon poultry seasoning, or any other seasoning mix that you like
  • ½ - 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 3 Tablespoons yogurt or mayonnaise
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
  • 4 garlic cloves, grated
Instructions
  1. The best chicken wings to use are whole wings, or you can use frozen wings. You will need to separate the whole wings. Separate the wings at the joint and discard the tip. You can save the tips to use the next time you make chicken broth. You will have a wing and a drumette.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the wings with all the other ingredients - salt, ground black pepper, spices, yogurt or mayonnaise, lemon juice and garlic. Marinate for at least half an hour. I usually do this either overnight or mix it up in the morning after work, sleep for a few hours and make it for dinner.
  3. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil if you want less clean up later. Place the wings on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for about 40-50 minutes, on the top rack of your oven. If there is any liquid at the bottom of the baking sheet, pour it off.
  5. If you marinated the chicken wings in yogurt, sometimes the wings are not as crispy as when you use mayonnaise. You may want to brush the wings with a thin layer of mayonnaise and bake for another 10-15 minutes. If you'd rather not use mayonnaise, you can brush the wings with a thin layer of oil or butter instead, or leave it plain. Coating the chicken with mayonnaise creates a thin layer for the high heat to grab ahold of and create crispy skin on the chicken wings.
  6. You can broil it to make it faster, just make sure to watch the oven closely, beacuse they can burn in the blink of an eye. Dinner is served:).
