How long to bake chicken wings?
In general, chicken wings can take about 45 to 50 minutes to bake at 425F. I think 50 minutes is the best time because the skin will be very crispy and golden brown.
Can I use frozen chicken wings to make this recipe?
Yes absolutely, but make sure to thaw them completely over night because baking them. Also, don’t forget to pat the wings dry with a paper towel because it’ll help the oil and seasonings coat the chicken wings really well.
How to bake chicken wings?
- Baked chicken wings are so simple to make and you just need to preheat oven to 425 F degrees, line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and parchment paper (I like to use both to avoid fat dripping into the baking sheet), season the chicken wings with all the seasonings you prefer and bake them.
- I also like to use olive oil just to help the seasonings to stick on the skin of the chicken.
- One last tip, flip them halfway through cooking time to allow them to be even crispier. All the step by step is on the recipe box below.
What to serve baked chicken wings?
If I make it for dinner, I like to serve with roasted veggies, salads and even some rice aside. But you serve it as an appetizer during game day; they go really well with blue cheese dip, garlic mayo sauce, ranch dipping sauce, ketchup and celery and carrot sticks.

do these wings come out crispy or baked with yucky skin?
No they come out super super crispy. You’ll love them 😉
Which goes onto the baking sheet first; the foil or parcment paper? Will the parchment paper burn in the oven?
The foil goes first, then the parchment paper and not it won’t burn (only if you use the broil in the oven).
I made this for dinner yesterday, we opted for chicken legs instead of wings. I used your baked chicken seasoning, a dry bbq and rotisserie to mix it up. It was a HUGE hit. My 15 yr old son is requesting more of your recipes now. Thank you!
That’s awesome! I’m happy you and your family enjoyed this recipe!
