Jalapeño Garlic Crispy Wings

Ingredients

• 2 lb chicken wings, split and tips removed
• 1 tablespoon aluminum-free baking powder
• 1 tablespoon Minnezona Jalapeño Garlic Seasoning
• 1 tablespoon neutral oil
• 1 tablespoon melted butter
• 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
• 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro

Directions

1. Pat the wings extremely dry with paper towels.
2. Toss wings with baking powder, Jalapeño Garlic Seasoning and oil until evenly coated.
3. Arrange in a single layer on a wire rack over a sheet pan.
4. Cook at 425°F for 40–45 minutes, flipping once, until deeply browned and crisp. For a pellet grill, use the same temperature and cook to the same visual doneness.
5. Combine melted butter and lime juice. Toss hot wings lightly with the mixture.
6. Finish with cilantro and a small extra dusting of Jalapeño Garlic if desired.

Recipe Notes

• Use baking powder, not baking soda.
• For maximum crispness, leave seasoned wings uncovered in the refrigerator for 2–8 hours before cooking.
• Cook chicken to at least 165°F internal temperature. Wings are often more tender around 175–185°F.
