Crispy Baked Chicken Wings with Garlic and Herbs

Crispy oven-baked chicken wings coated in garlic, herbs, and a touch of olive oil for a flavorful and healthier alternative to fried wings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs chicken wings, separated at joints and tips removed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place a wire rack on top.
  2. Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  3. In a large bowl, toss wings with olive oil, garlic, oregano, thyme, rosemary, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange wings in a single layer on the rack.
  5. Bake for 40–45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Remove from oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
  7. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, let wings air-dry in the fridge for 1 hour before baking.
  • Can be served with dipping sauces like ranch or garlic aioli.
  • Adjust herb mix by adding basil or sage for variation.
