These ones are baked but use a secret technique to make them extra crisp. Raise your hand if you like chicken wings. Now keep them up if you enjoy spending time in front of a deep-fryer while oil splatters all over the kitchen. Did I see a few hands go down? It’s been branded into our heads that chicken wings need to be deep fried to be crispy. Find out the secret to making ultra-crispy chicken wings in the oven. Were you surprised by the baking powder in that video?

Stick with me as I go into the details. It’s a mixture of sodium bicarbonate, cream of tartar and cornstarch. When mixed with salt and coated on chicken it dries out the skin, leaving it crisp and crunchy. My son says they’re as good as from his fave wing shop! I at first thought that they were using baking soda instead of baking powder. Doing so would definitely lead to a terrible taste.

However, they claimed that they were really using baking powder for sure. If you notice this flavor, you’ll want to try a different brand of baking powder. The Rumford brand is aluminum-free, so do try that one. I haven’t yet done a taste test comparison using the two different types of baking powder but I will soon and then I will report back with my results here. 1 Cut up 10 whole chicken wings. When you cut ten wings, you end up with 30 wing pieces.

That’s 10 drumettes, 10 flaps and 10 wing tips. You’ll either discard the wing tips or save them for another use. That leaves 20 wing pieces that you’re using here. Once they’re all cut up, put them into a big bowl. It doesn’t seem like much but you’re not trying to make a coating for the wings here. You’re trying to change their ph level so that they will crisp up better.

Don’t be afraid to use your hands. It’s way easier and one less thing to wash. 3 Place the wings on a cooking rack in a sheet pan. This lets air circulate all around the chicken pieces so that they get evenly crisp.

It also lets the fat drip away from the chicken, leading to crispy, crispy, crispy skin. This gets some of the fat rendered from under the skin and starts that drying out process. Here’s how they look after 30 minutes. F and cook 40-50 minutes more, until golden brown and so crispy. 6 Toss them in a super-amazing sauce.
