Ingredients
- 3 lbs chicken wings
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves of garlic minced or crushed
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 large lemon juiced
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper optional
- salt and pepper
- Fresh parsley for garnish
- Feta cheese for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- In a large bowl or Ziplock bag add the extra virgin olive oil, garlic, paprika, oregano, cumin, lemon juice, cayenne (if adding), salt and pepper. Mix well till all the ingredients are well combined.
- Now add the chicken to the bowl or bag of marinade and mix till the chicken is well coated. Set aside. Marinate for an hour or even overnight.
- Line a baking sheet tray with baking sheet and spray with oil. Place the chicken wings in a single layer. Don’t overcrowd them.
- Place the tray in the middle rack. Bake for 40 minutes, turning them over halfway.
- If you want a crispier, browned finish broil the chicken for 5-8 minutes. It gives it a nice char on top. Just be sure to watch them so they don’t burn!
- Take out of the oven and garnish with parsley and sprinkles of feta cheese
