Ingredients
12 chicken wings, separated into flats (wing tips removed) and drumettes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (if you want it REALLY spicy, use 3/4 to 1 teaspoon)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
6 cloves garlic, grated
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment and set aside. Arrange the wings on a paper towel-lined sheet pan and pat them dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the wings to a large bowl.
- In a small bowl, mix the flour, 1 teaspoon salt, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add the seasoning to the wings and toss thoroughly to fully coat each wing. Place the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, 40 to 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter with the grated garlic and salt to taste, stirring occasionally. Transfer the wings to a clean large bowl, drizzle with the garlic butter, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Return to the baking sheet and bake until nicely browned and a bit crispy, an additional 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a platter and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
