Creating Crispy Baked Chicken Wings is simple if you follow these clear steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
2. Prepare the Chicken Wings: Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
3. Mix the Seasonings: In a large bowl, combine baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper (if using). Mix well.
4. Coat the Wings: Add the chicken wings to the bowl with the seasoning mixture. Drizzle olive oil over the wings and toss until they are evenly coated.
5. Arrange on the Rack: Place the seasoned wings on the wire rack in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching to allow for even cooking.
6. Bake: Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, flipping them halfway through for even crispiness. They should be golden brown and crispy.
7. Rest the Wings: Once done, remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 10-15 minutes to allow the juices to settle.
8. Garnish and Serve: If desired, garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Following these steps will lead you to achieve perfect crispy wings that are incredibly enjoyable!
