Baked Chili Rub Wings Recipes

CHILE-RUBBED WINGS

Steps:

• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly oil. Mix the chile powder, cumin, coriander, cloves, 2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Add the wings and toss to coat.
• Spread the wings, spaced apart, on the prepared baking sheets. Bake, turning once, until browned and crisp, about 40 minutes.
• Hot:
• Ancho chile powder gives these a slightly smoky kick; serious wing lovers will want to step up the heat.
• Hotter:
• Put 2 jalapenos, 1/2 cup cilantro, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, the juice of 1 lime and 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a food processor and finely chop. Toss with the wings; marinate 2 hours. Brush off the marinade and rub and bake as directed, omitting the black pepper.
• Hottest:
• Marinate the wings in the jalapeno mixture (see above), then rub and bake as directed. About 5 minutes before they're finished baking, brush with a mixture of 3 tablespoons each honey and Sriracha sauce (hot Asian chili sauce).

CRISPY BAKED CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• For the wings: Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and brush the foil with the oil.
• Pat the wings dry with paper towels, then sprinkle with the baking powder and toss to evenly coat in a large mixing bowl. Spread the wings evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, crispy and cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• For the dry rub: Combine the brown sugar, salt, black pepper, granulated sugar, paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, cayenne and celery seeds in a small bowl.
• Remove the wings from the oven and add to another large mixing bowl. Season well with some of the rub, and then toss to coat. (Reserve the remaining rub for another use.) Serve immediately.

THE GREATEST RUBBED WINGS

Steps:

• Combine wings and cola in a large bowl. Place in the fridge to marinate for 1 hour.
• Mix sazon seasoning, mustard, cayenne pepper, seafood seasoning, celery salt, brown sugar, and BBQ seasoning together for the rub.
• Drain wings and discard cola. Mix wings thoroughly with 1/2 cup hot sauce, then toss in the rub to coat.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (218 degrees C). Grease a broiler pan with cooking spray.
• Bake wings in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Flip and continue baking until crispy, about 20 minutes more. Toss wings with the remaining hot sauce and return to the oven for 5 more minutes.
