  • Wash wings off with water and pat dry with a paper towel. Note - if you intend to meal prep some of the wings, freeze at this step. Line the oven tray with aluminum foil and spray/coat with cooking oil or use a silicone baking mat. Line chicken on a tray skin-side down and make sure they are not touching one another.

  • Once browned, flip the chicken and bake for additional 10 minutes or until browned. If you want a crispy skin, move the rack 6-8″ away from the heating element, switch to broil, and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a serving plate, garnish with optional green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
