Ingredients
20wing pieces
1tablespoonaluminum-free baking powder
1/2teaspoonsalt
sauce or dry rub
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.
Line two rimmed baking sheets with foil and place a rack onto the sheet (I just used my cooling racks).
Place the wing pieces into a bowl and dump in the baking powder and salt. Mix them with your hands to distribute the powder and salt. (Don't expect them to look like they've been dipped in flour; you won't be able to see the coating on the wings when you're done.)
Place the wing pieces in a single layer on the rack, spacing them just slightly. Cook them for 30 minutes.
Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees, and cook for another 45 to 50 minutes or until the wings are brown and crispy.
Let them rest for a couple minutes, and then toss them in your favorite wing sauce or dry rub and serve immediately.
