If you’re looking for the taste and crunch of fried chicken without deep-frying, then you’ll love this Crispy Oven Baked Chicken Wings recipe. It includes a simple spice mix and a few tools to create an easy main dish. In this post, I share how to make crispy chicken wings in the oven and offer some of my favorite dips and side dishes to enjoy these with.

How to Make Crispy Baked Chicken Wings without Deep Frying:

Making chicken wings in the oven is actually quite easy. Below, I’m going to summarize the steps and give some of my top tips.

  1. Preheat the oven and take your wings out of the refrigerator
  2. Pat the wings dry with a paper bowl to remove as much moisture as possible
  3. Prepare the spice mix and toss the wings in it to coat
  4. Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet or baking sheet with a cooling rack for about 25 minutes per side.

Add Baking Powder to the Spice Mix: 

One of the keys to making Oven Fried Chicken Wings is to use baking powder in the spice mix. Baking Powder (not baking soda) allows the chicken skin to heat and start cooking quicker than the chicken wing meat. This results in tender, juicy meat that has crispy skin. I recommend using 1 tablespoon of baking powder for every 1-1.5 pounds of chicken wings.

Pat the Wings Dry:

The baking powder trick works best when the chicken wings are dried with a paper towel before cooking. Dry wings allow the baking powder spice mixture to coat the wings evenly. If you forget this step, then you’ll need to cook them longer to make the skin crispy.

Sauce & Dip Recommendations

I love these wings plain and they are kid-approved. But, there are a few sauces and dips across the site that these taste great with:

  • Buffalo Sauce
  • Garlic Parmesan Wing Sauce
  • Sugar-free Teriyaki Sauce
  • Keto Sweet Chili Sauce
  • Ranch Dressing
  • Homemade Blue Cheese
  • Bang Bang Sauce

What Sides Go With Oven Fried Baked Chicken Wings:

You can pair these wings with your favorite vegetable or salad to make it a meal. One of my favorite sides is a caesar salad with my homemade caesar dressing. But, to add variety, I also recommend:

  • Creamed Spinach
  • Air Fryer Green Beans
  • Keto Coleslaw
  • Cauliflower Mac and Cheese
  • Roasted Garlic Cauliflower
  • Roasted Cauliflower and Brussel Sprouts

Time Saving Tip:

I prefer to use this baked chicken wing recipe when I want to make keto appetizers for a crowd or when I am meal-prepping. But, when I’m in a hurry or I’m making a quick dinner for my family of two, I make chicken wings in my air fryer.  That recipe is one of several easy air fryer recipes across the site.
