Ingredients
  

For the Wings
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 pounds chicken wings cut through the 2 wing joints; discard wing tips
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • Dash cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 cup barbecue sauce divided

Equipment

  • Baking pan
  • Bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a 15x10x1-inch baking pan with foil or parchment paper. Pour butter and oil over the lining; brush to coat evenly.
  2. In a large bowl, combine baking powder, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Add the chicken wing pieces, a few at a time, and toss to coat. Shake off any excess seasoning.
  3. Place the seasoned wings on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Bake until golden brown, about 30-35 minutes.
  4. Brush both sides of the wings with half of the barbecue sauce. Return to the oven and cook until browned and the juices run clear, about 8-10 minutes longer.
  5. Brush with the remaining 1/4 cup of barbecue sauce before serving.
