Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds chicken wings
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper large grind
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • Cooking oil spray
  • Additional salt & pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the chicken wings dry and transfer them to a large bowl or zip-top bag.
  • Add cornstarch, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Toss until the wings are fully coated.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the wings in a single layer. Lightly spritz them with cooking oil.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, flip the wings, spritz again, and bake for another 10 minutes—until crispy and fully cooked (internal temp should reach 165°F/74°C).
  • Taste and adjust seasoning. I always add more black pepper.
