This crispy chicken recipe was an absolute delight to make and obviously to eat. You would think that to make crispy chicken you need a fryer, but I have found a recipe that you can get the same effect but by using your oven. Not only is it easier to make, it is also a more healthier method but still just as delicious.

This recipe is paired with a post on ‘cross contamination of chicken’, this shows the importance of food safety in the kitchen and is vital to learn and understand.

Steps

1
Done

Do day in advance (if chicken is frozen)

Take chicken out the freezer, place on a plate with kitchen roll underneath. Put at the bottom of the fridge.

2
Done

For the chicken

Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and preheat oven to 230°C. Line a rimmed baking tray with tin foil and set a wire rack inside (so that the fat from the chicken drips off allowing the wings to crisp up)

3
Done

Remove chicken from packaging, cut the chicken wings on a red board into drumettes and flats using a sharpe knife - for clarification see https://www.willcookforsmiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Baked-Chicken-Wings-1.jpg after all the chicken has been cut, wash hands and wash red board in hot soapy water and bin the packaging.

4
Done

Pat dry the chicken wings with kitchen roll, ensuring to remove as much moisture as possible, (this helps toward crisping the wings up when baked) transfer them to a large bowl, then wash hands

5
Done

In a small bowl, combine the baking powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper together, mix well to combine. Then sprinkle the mixture over the wings, toss wings through the baking powder mixture until evenly coated. Wash hands

6
Done

Arrange on rack and put in oven for 30mins. While wings are cooking, prep your wedges by washing, peeling and chopping your potatoes. Put wedges into a bowl along with some salt and pepper to season and about 1tbsp of olive oil. Toss the wedges to coat. Put onto a baking tray and set aside

7
Done

When your chicken wings has had 30mins of cooking flip and continue to cook for a further 20-30mins till golden brown. ( REMEMBER to probe your chicken when finished cooking to ensure that it has reached 75° and higher) At the same time put your wedges in the oven and bake for 25mins and 3 garlic cloves in some tin foil to roast ready for my garlic mayo sauce later on.

8
Done

When the chicken and wedges are cooking prep your sauces - I chose a garlic mayo to make this take your garlic out the oven and crush in some mayo and set aside, ( You can also just use ketchup and BBQ sauce)
Take out your chicken wings and wedges from the oven and put into serving dishes.
Enjoy
