Baked Ranch Wings (Print-Friendly Version)

Crunchy baked wings loaded with lively ranch spices for a tasty snack or game night treat.

# Ingredients List:

→ Chicken

01 - 907 g chicken wings cut into flats and drumettes

→ Coating and Spices

02 - 45 ml ranch seasoning mix
03 - 30 ml extra virgin olive oil
04 - 5 ml salt
05 - 2.5 ml ground black pepper
06 - 15 ml baking powder without aluminum

# Detailed Cooking Steps:

01 - Heat your oven to 200°C. Cover a big baking tray with parchment paper and put a wire rack that’s safe for the oven on top. This helps air flow for crunchy skin.
02 - Use paper towels to dry the wings well so they get nice and crisp when cooked.
03 - Put the wings in a big bowl and toss them with baking powder, black pepper, and salt. This helps the skin dry out and get crunchy.
04 - Pour olive oil over the wings and mix gently so they’re lightly coated all over.
05 - Spread the wings on the wire rack making sure there’s space between each for air to move around.
06 - Cook the wings for about 45 to 50 minutes. Flip them halfway to make sure they brown and crisp up evenly.
07 - For the last 10 minutes, crank the oven up to 220°C to get the skin extra crispy.
08 - Take the wings out and quickly toss them in a clean bowl with the ranch mix so they’re fully coated.
09 - Serve the wings while they’re hot for the best taste and crunch.

# Helpful Hints:

01 - Drying the wings well and using a wire rack are musts if you want them crispy.
02 - Feel free to add more or less ranch mix depending on how you like it.
