Garlic Ranch Chicken Wings

Man food is here, and if you’ve got a sports fan in your house you’ll need lots of it this weekend. My husband likes chicken wings crispity-crispy, so this recipe the way I make it for him. Baking the chicken wings on parchment is a must if you want them crispy, as it makes it much much easier to flip them when you want to crisp up both sides. So get yourself a 5 pound back of chicken wings at the store and get cooking! Ingredients: 5 lbs chicken wings 2 tsp paprika 2 tablespoons dry ranch dressing 1 Tbsp salt 2 tsp garlic powder, or 3-4 pressed garlic cloves 3 tablespoons mayo or 2 tablespoons oil How to make Garlic Ranch Chicken Wings: Use a ziplock bag or a large bowl to put all ingredients in, then mix together to coat. For best results it’s best to leave the chicken wings to marinate for a couple hours or even overnight, but I’ve done it right away as well with wonderful results. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper then spread the wings all across. You might need to use 2 baking sheets, as to not overcrowd the baking pan (the picture below shows what overcrowding looks like 😀 I just wanted a lot at once :) ). Allowing the hot air to circulate all around will make the chicken wings more crispy all around.

Rotate the pan halfway through. Now, flip each wing upside down and bake on the other side for another 10 minutes to crisp up the bottom. This is when you'll really appreciate that you had parchment paper - it prevents the wings from sticking and makes it much easier to flip them upside down. Serve hot with your favorite sauce right away.
