Ingredients

  • 2 lbs chicken wings cut into pieces (drumette, flats, wing tips)
  • 3 tbsp cajun seasoning

Instructions

To Bake Crispy Wings:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels.
  • In a large mixing bowl or plastic bag, add chicken and seasoning and toss to coat completely.
  • Line two large baking sheets (with a large rim) with parchment paper or foil.
  • Set a wire rack (preferably a nonstick rack, or lightly greased) over baking sheets.
  • Divide wings between wire racks and spread out in a single layer.
  • Bake wings until cooked through and skin is crispy, 45–50 minutes.
  • For extra crunch, broil under broiler on high for 2-3 minutes per side - watch CAREFULLY to make sure wings don't burn or over-crisp.
