This Crispy Oven Fried Chicken Wings should be your go to fried chicken recipe when you are craving for a delicious and crispy chicken wings without too much oil. It is also simple and easy to prepare. It makes a good appetizer (just like popcorn chicken) or meal when paired with your favorite side dish.
I used a rub composed of garlic salt, smoked paprika, and ground black pepper to make the chicken tasty. You can simply apply the rub and then cook the chicken right away, or let it stay for a few more minutes so that the chicken can absorb flavors from the rub. If I have extra time, I let the chicken sit with the rub longer for better results.
Note that Crispy Oven Fried Chicken Wings requires quick pan frying in order to partially cook the coating of the chicken. This will make the chicken a bit brown and somewhat crispy. The magic happens inside the oven wherein the chicken gets cooked completely. The result is a delicious oven fried chicken wings with a crispy texture on the outside, while the inside is tender and juicy.
