Steps

Prep and Season

Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C for fan-assisted ovens). In a large bowl, combine olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken wings and toss thoroughly to ensure they are evenly coated with the seasoned oil.

Initial Bake

Arrange the seasoned chicken wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they don't touch. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until the skin starts to crisp and the meat is partially cooked.

Sauce and Finish

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and generously brush the chicken wings with BBQ sauce. Return them to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the sauce is caramelized and the chicken is fully cooked, reaching an internal temperature of 74°C. You can flip them once halfway through and brush with more sauce if desired.

Serve

Remove the finished BBQ chicken wings from the oven, let them rest for a few minutes, then serve immediately. Enjoy your meal!

Extra Tips

► For even crispier skin, thoroughly pat dry the chicken wings with paper towels before baking.

► If you have time, marinate the wings with the spice rub for an hour in the fridge to let the flavors meld.

► Serve with fresh vegetables, a dipping sauce, or mashed potatoes for a complete meal experience.
