Ingredients

• 2 lbs Chicken wings
• 2 tbsp Old Bay seasoning
• 1 tbsp Baking powder
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 1 tsp Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Place a cooling rack on top of the baking sheet to ensure the wings cook evenly.

Step 2

Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps them get crispier when cooked.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the baking powder, 1 tablespoon of Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Toss the dried wings in the mixture until they are evenly coated.

Step 4

Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking rack, ensuring there is enough space between each wing for proper airflow.

Step 5

Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, flip the wings over and continue baking for another 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 6

While the wings are baking, prepare the butter sauce by melting the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon of Old Bay seasoning and the lemon juice. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 7

Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large bowl. Drizzle the prepared butter sauce over the wings and toss them gently to coat evenly.

Step 8

Serve the Old Bay wings immediately, garnished with a sprinkle of extra Old Bay seasoning if desired, and add celery sticks or ranch dip on the side for a complete experience.
