Ingredients

  • 1 kg Chicken Wings split into flats & drumettes
  • 1½ tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • ½ tsp Onion Powder
  • ¼ tsp Cayenne Pepper optional, for mild heat
  • 15 g Olive Oil
  • 60 g Butter unsalted
  • 5 cloves Garlic finely minced
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tbsp Parsley finely chopped
  • ½ tsp Lemon zest
  • Salt adjust to taste
  • For the Garlic-Butter Glaze

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 220 °C (fan) and line a baking tray with a wire rack set over a foil-lined tray.
  • Pat the wings dry thoroughly with paper towels (this helps crisp them).
  • In a bowl, combine baking powder, sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, onion powder and cayenne. Toss the wings with olive oil, then with the dry mixture until evenly coated.
  • Arrange the wings skin-side up in a single layer on the wire rack, leaving a little space between them.
  • Roast for 20 minutes, then flip each wing and roast for another 15–20 minutes until the skin is crisp and the meat fully cooked (internal temperature ≥ 75 °C).
  • While the wings roast, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add garlic and gently cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant (do not burn).
  • Remove from heat, stir in lemon juice, lemon zest and parsley. Taste and season with a pinch of salt if needed.
  • When wings are done, transfer them to a large bowl, pour over the garlic-butter glaze and toss to coat evenly.
  • Serve immediately, optionally garnished with extra parsley and a wedge of lemon on the side.
