Ingredients
Scale
Dry Rub:
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp white pepper
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp kosher salt
Wings:
- 2 lbs chicken wings (drumettes and flats, trimmed)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Prep the Wings: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or set your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Pat the wings dry with a paper towel and toss them in olive oil until evenly coated.
- Mix the Magic: Combine all the dry rub ingredients in a bowl. Mix well to create that flavorful Louisiana rub.
- Rub It In: Coat the wings generously with the spice mix, ensuring every inch gets that bold kick.
- Cook It Up:
- Oven: Arrange the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a wire rack. Bake for 40–45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden.
- Air Fryer: Place wings in a single layer and cook for 20–25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway for even crispiness.
- Serve Hot: Pull those wings out, let them cool slightly, and dig in while they’re still hot and spicy!
