Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and honey. Whisk together until well mixed.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Wings

    Add the bone-in chicken wings to the marinade. Toss to coat the wings evenly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight for best flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 4

    Arrange the Wings

    Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the marinated wings in a single layer on the wire rack.

  3. 5

    Bake the Wings

    Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning them halfway through, until the wings are crispy and have reached an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

  4. 6

    Prepare Sauce (optional)

    If you want to add a sauce, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in the buffalo sauce until well combined.

  5. 7

    Toss in Sauce (optional)

    Once the wings are cooked, remove them from the oven and toss them in the buffalo sauce mixture until evenly coated.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve the Wings

    Transfer the wings to a serving platter and serve hot. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauces and sides.
