Crispy chicken wings

Here’s a simple recipe for carnivore-style crispy chicken wings:

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs chicken wings (separated into drumettes and flats)
  • Salt to taste
  • Optional: Black pepper and garlic powder (if you want to add a bit more flavor)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the Wings:
    • Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. The drier the wings, the crispier they will be.
    • Season the wings generously with salt. If using, add a sprinkle of black pepper and garlic powder as well.
  3. Bake the Wings:
    • Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the rack. This setup allows the heat to circulate around the wings, helping them get crispy.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning the wings halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
  4. Serve: Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy chicken wings carnivore style!

Tips for Extra Crispiness:

  • Double Bake: For extra crispy wings, you can bake them at a lower temperature (250°F) for 30 minutes, then increase the temperature to 425°F for another 30-40 minutes.
  • Air Dry: Let the wings air dry in the refrigerator for a few hours (or overnight) before baking to remove excess moisture.

Enjoy your delicious, carnivore-friendly crispy chicken wings!
