Get crispy, flavorful chicken wings without deep frying! Our family recipe tenderizer and breading mix create restaurant-quality wings in your oven—perfect for game day, parties, or weeknight dinners.
Ingredients
- 3 lbs chicken wings (drumettes and flats separated)
- Kalmes 2-in-1 Seasoning & Tenderizer
- SUPERB BLEND Breading Mix
- ½ cup buttermilk or beaten eggs
- Cooking spray or oil mister
- Your favorite wing sauce (buffalo, BBQ, teriyaki, etc.)
Instructions
Step 1: Prep and Season Wings
Pat wings completely dry with paper towels (this is crucial for crispiness). Season generously with Kalmes 2-in-1 Seasoning & Tenderizer, tossing to coat evenly. Let rest 15-20 minutes.
Step 2: Preheat Oven
Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray rack with cooking spray.
Step 3: Coat the Wings
Dip each seasoned wing in buttermilk, then dredge in SUPERB BLEND Breading Mix, pressing gently to ensure coating sticks. Shake off excess.
Step 4: Arrange on Rack
Place coated wings on the wire rack in a single layer, not touching. Lightly spray tops with cooking spray or mist with oil. This helps them crisp up in the oven.
Step 5: Bake to Crispy Perfection
Bake for 45-50 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy. Internal temperature should reach 165°F.
Step 6: Sauce and Serve
If using sauce, toss hot wings in your favorite sauce immediately after baking. For extra crispy wings, serve sauce on the side for dipping instead.
Flavor Variations
- Buffalo Wings: Toss in buffalo sauce and serve with ranch or blue cheese
- BBQ Wings: Brush with BBQ sauce during last 5 minutes of baking
- Dry Rub Wings: Skip the sauce and enjoy the seasoned breading flavor
- Asian-Style: Toss with teriyaki or sweet chili sauce
Pro Tips
- Dry wings thoroughly before seasoning — moisture prevents crispiness
- Use a wire rack so air circulates around wings for even crisping
- Don't skip the cooking spray — it helps achieve that fried texture
- Flip wings halfway through for even browning
- For maximum crispiness, serve immediately
