Ingredients

  • 1 to 4 pounds (450g to 1.7kg) chicken wings, cut into drumettes and flats
  • 1 teaspoon (5g) baking powder per pound of chicken wings

  • This method works if you aren’t prepping a ton of wings but we don’t have enough fridge space to set them all out on trays to dry overnight. So in previous attempts I’ve just placed them in a mixing bowl in the fridge. This isn’t great because some wings get really dry and some don’t. So this time I placed them vertically in the bowl so they all get equal air time. I also put them in overnight one direction and flipped them over the morning of baking.
