Chicken Wings with Salt and Pepper
These will probably be the simplest and most amazing wings you’ll ever make. Generously seasoned with salt and pepper and baked to a crisp perfection!
2 lb chicken wings
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp. black pepper freshly ground
2 tsp. sea salt
Garnish:
1 Tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped
Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place all wings in a medium sized bowl. Drizzle the wings with the olive oil and toss well, making sure each wing is coated with a bit of olive oil.
Sprinkle the chicken wings with the pepper and salt, and toss well.
Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking pan. Bake for about 40-45 minutes or until they're golden crisp.
Sprinkle with more salt and pepper if preferred and garnish with some fresh parsley, chopped.
Serve while warm.
Makes 4 servings.
Cook's Notes: Usually wings came pre-cut into wingettes and drumettes, but if they are not, remove the wing tip then cut them vertically through the joint. Discard the wing tip. If your wings aren't golden and crispy after 45 minutes, turn the broiler on and broil them for about 3 more minutes, watching them carefully as they could burn quickly.
