Crispy Stove-Top Chicken Wings with Savory Spices

Ingredients

- 2 pounds chicken wings, tips removed and split into flats and drumettes
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- Olive oil spray

Instructions

1. Preparation:
- Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, combine the baking powder, garlic powder, kosher salt, paprika, and black pepper. Mix well to create the spice blend.
- Step 2: Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure maximum crispiness. Add the wings to the bowl and toss thoroughly to coat each piece evenly with the spice blend.

2. Cooking:
- Step 3: Preheat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat on the stove. Allow the skillet to heat for about 3 minutes until it's hot.
- Step 4: Once hot, lightly spray the skillet with olive oil spray to prevent sticking. Carefully arrange the seasoned chicken wings in a single layer in the skillet. Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
- Step 5: Reduce the heat to medium, and cook the chicken wings for about 8 minutes on one side without moving them. This will help develop a crispy golden-brown crust.
- Step 6: Flip the chicken wings over using tongs, and continue cooking for another 8 minutes on the other side, ensuring both sides are evenly browned and the wings are cooked through.

3. Final Touch:
- Step 7: For an extra layer of crispiness, increase the heat back to medium-high for an additional 2 minutes on each side.
- Step 8: Remove the wings from the skillet and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
