Simple Spiced Baked Chicken Wings

Ingredients

• 2.5 lbs Chicken Wingettes (Approximately 12 wingettes, separated at joints, tips removed if desired)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter (Cut into small pats)
• 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour (For coating)
• 2 teaspoons Paprika (Regular or smoked)
• 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
• Optional tablespoon Fresh Parsley (Chopped, for garnish)
• To Taste Dipping Sauce (Ranch, blue cheese, buffalo, etc.)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
2. Distribute pats of butter evenly across the foil-lined baking sheet.
3. In a medium bowl, combine flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
4. Coat each chicken wingette thoroughly with the flour mixture.
5. Place coated wingettes on the baking sheet, ensuring they don't touch and are spaced roughly equally apart. Make sure each wing is near some of the butter pats.
6. Bake for 30 minutes.
7. Flip the wings over and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown. Ensure an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) is reached.
8. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
