Notes
My trick to super crispy oven baked wings is boiling them first. Sounds weird but it renders out a lot of the fat which shortens oven time and makes them more crispy.
Preheat oven to 450 degree.
Bring pot of water of water to boil. Add 1-2 tablespoon salt (should taste like salt water).
Add chicken to pot, lower heat to simmer for about 5-8 minutes depending on how big wings are.
Dry wings thoroughly. This is important!
Place wings on metal sheet pan (thicker side face down).
Cook for 25 minutes.
Flip and cook another 5-12 minutes. Cook time varies based on size of wings and oven (regular vs convection).
Sauce wings hot out of oven. Make sure sauce is warm when you coat them.
