Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Cajun Seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425℉. Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top.
- Cut the chicken wings into flats and drumettes if they are not already separated. Discard the wing tips.
- Use paper towels to pat the wings dry, ensuring they are completely moisture-free for optimal crispiness.
- Place the wings in a large bowl. Sprinkle with baking powder and toss until the wings are evenly coated.
- Add the Cajun seasoning to the wings and toss again to ensure they are fully coated with the spices.
- Arrange the wings on the prepared wire rack in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching for even cooking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 24 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
