Ingredients

  • 20 frozen chicken wings (drumettes and flats)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and arrange the frozen chicken wings in a single layer with space between pieces.
  • Place the baking sheet in the oven immediately; you do not need to wait for the oven to finish preheating.
  • Bake for about 50 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a wing registers 160°F (71°C).
  • Remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  • If desired, toss the wings in barbecue or Buffalo sauce just before serving.

Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Aluminum Foil
  • instant-read thermometer

Notes

  • Arrange wings in a single layer for even cooking.
  • No need to thaw—cook from frozen.
  • Check doneness with a thermometer inserted into the thickest part.
  • Let wings rest 5 minutes before serving.
