Instructions
PREP WINGS:
- Wash the wings well with cold water. Dry each wing with a paper towel. This will ensure each wing will get nice and crispy.
MAKE HARISSA PASTE:
- Add the hot pepper paste, olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, mint, oregano, paprika, fennel powder, maple syrup, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
- Mix well until a thick paste/sauce forms. Season with salt to taste. It should be pungent.
COAT WINGS:
- Add the wings to the paste.
- Massage for 2-3 minutes.
CHILL WINGS:
- Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap.
- Chill in the fridge for two hours or up to 24 hours.
BAKE WINGS:
- Move the oven rack to the middle position.
- Preheat oven to 400℉.
- Transfer the wings to a nonstick baking sheet or line a sheet pan with parchment paper when ready.
- Place each wing about ½ inch apart. If you place them too close, they will steam and not be crispy.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165℉.
- Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- If you use a dark sheet pan, lower the heat to 375°F and continue to bake for 25-30 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- I used Turkish Hot red pepper paste. Feel free to use sweet red pepper paste and add Cheyenne pepper (add the desired amount).
