Crispy skin. Juicy centre. Proper flavour.
These Wingman chicken wings are seasoned generously and cooked until golden and crisp. Perfect for game day, parties or casual dinners.
Ingredients
- 1.2kg chicken wings
- 1½ tbsp Wingman seasoning
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Optional: 1 tsp baking powder (for extra crisp skin)
Directions
Preparation: Dry and Season
Pat wings completely dry with kitchen paper. Moisture prevents crisping.
Toss wings in olive oil.
Sprinkle evenly with Wingman seasoning.
For extra crisp skin, lightly dust with baking powder and mix well.
Oven Method
Preheat oven to 200°C (fan 190°C).
Arrange wings on a wire rack over a tray. Do not overcrowd.
Roast for 40–45 minutes, turning halfway through.
Air Fryer Method
Preheat air fryer to 200°C.
Arrange wings in a single layer.
Cook for 18–22 minutes, turning halfway through.
BBQ Method
Preheat BBQ for indirect cooking at medium heat.
Place wings away from direct flames.
Cook 30–40 minutes with lid closed.
Finish briefly over direct heat to crisp skin.
What to Look For at the Finish
The skin should be golden brown and visibly crisp. When tapped, it should feel firm rather than soft. The juices should run clear and internal temperature should reach 75°C. The meat should remain juicy, not dry.
Serving Suggestions
Serve with blue cheese dip, ranch or hot sauce. Add celery sticks and a squeeze of lemon. Ideal for sharing boards or party platters.
