For some reason, many people treat chicken wings as a kind of offal, as something less valuable compared to the same breast or legs. There doesn’t seem to be much meat in them, just skin and bones. But at the same time, chicken wings, with the right approach, can turn into almost a delicacy, a delicious appetizer, a hearty main course, and, in general, an extremely tasty dish.
And just in this article we will analyze in detail one of the most popular methods of preparing wings. Here you will learn how. And several step-by-step recipes with photos and videos, as well as various useful tips and notes from me, will help you with this.
But before moving on to the recipes, let’s look at the general principles of cooking, spend a couple of minutes on marinades, baking conditions and other important nuances. If you are in a hurry, then immediately go to the desired item by clicking on the article menu.
On the way to baked chicken wings
The first place to start is with the wings themselves. They are sold both frozen and chilled. Of course, preference should be given to chilled chicken, this applies to everything: wings, legs, breasts, whole carcasses, liver, etc.
The fact is that frozen wings (like other parts of chicken) are often pumped with various liquids, and after defrosting there is a chance that you will see not fleshy wings, but skinny, wrinkled sticks.
Before baking, you should always defrost the wings first, yes, it takes time, but what can you do? And only defrosted everything should be marinated. Of course, this is obvious, but for some the information will be useful.
If you put the wings in the oven ice-cold, they will release a huge amount of liquid, become flabby, the cooking time will at least double, and on top of that, the pieces will bake unevenly. And the meat inside will be tasteless.
The second important point, one might say the most important point, is marinades for chicken wings. Almost 80% of the information in all kinds of recipes for baked wings is devoted specifically to the preparation of the marinade and the subsequent marinating of the chicken.
The marinade gives all the taste; as they say, it contains all the salt! Therefore, if you want to bake chicken wings deliciously, then first coat them with some sauce with aromatic spices.
How long to marinate wings? Since these parts of the chicken are quite small in size, the marinating time can range from 30 minutes to 2 hours (store in the refrigerator). Of course, some people keep their wings for almost a day, but this is personal preference.
The most popular marinade, one might say the gold standard, is a mixture of honey and soy sauce. Garlic, lemon, aromatic herbs, spices, tomato paste, etc. are also added here to choose from. Thanks to this marinade, the wings turn out very golden, with a crispy caramelized crust. This recipe will be below.
- And now one of the most popular questions: “How long to cook chicken wings in the oven?”
Usually, small wings need about 25-30 minutes at a temperature of 180-200 degrees. But here it is worth making a reservation.
The fact is that everyone's oven is different, and therefore the baking time will also vary. For some, 25-35 minutes is enough, while others bake the wings for about an hour.
There is no need to chase time; it would be better to bake the wings longer, but at a relatively low temperature. Then they will not have time to burn (as happens in modes of 200 degrees, especially when the chicken is covered with honey sauces).
If the wings burn quickly and do not have time to bake from the inside (the juice is pink, the seeds are reddish), then use a baking bag or place a layer of foil on top of the baking sheet. And then at the right moment, remove all this and simmer the wings for another 5-10 minutes until golden.
Here, in fact, are the basic rules for baking chicken wings, now let’s move on to the most important thing - recipes.

We also lightly sprinkle them with black pepper and salt. A little bit.
Preheat the oven to 190-200 degrees, then place the wings in it for 15-20 minutes (until half cooked).

Wings with a crispy crust in the oven (with honey-tomato sauce)
If you are looking for a recipe for especially crispy chicken wings, then take a closer look at this option. Very tasty, very aromatic baked wings, covered with a sweet and sour sauce based on honey, ketchup and vinegar. And how crunchy these wings are - a divine appetizer!
The peculiarity of the recipe is that the wings are baked first, and only then, when they are cooked, the wings are covered with sauce. This is just in case you suddenly want a recipe without honey (you just don’t like it or are allergic to it). You can use some other sauce.
We will need:
- Chilled chicken wings – 1 kg.
- Garlic – 1-4 cloves (to taste);
- Ground paprika - 2 tbsp. spoons;
- Baking powder – 2 teaspoons;
- Black pepper – 1 teaspoon;
- Salt – 1 teaspoon;

- Salt – optional;

Cooking process
Place all the wings in a cup, then sprinkle them with pepper, paprika, and salt. Add baking powder here and grate (or finely chop) the garlic. Mix well.
Why does this dish need baking powder? But this is exactly what will give you an unforgettable crispy crust! Baking powder consists of flour, citric acid and soda. And this mixture will form a thin batter, a loose crust.
This is how the wings turned out, rubbed on all sides with spices. Now put it all in the refrigerator for 40-60 minutes so that the chicken pieces are thoroughly soaked.
Turn on the oven at 190-200 degrees - let it warm up. Meanwhile, arrange the wings on a baking sheet. This could be a wire rack, just a baking sheet, or some other shape.
If you use a wire rack, place baking foil under it so that all the fat drains there.
That's it, now put the wings in the oven to bake for about 20-25 minutes.
The wings are fried on one side, carefully turn them over and then bake for another 20-25 minutes.
Now look at the wings, if they are cooked, dry and covered with a sufficient crust, then everything is ready. If the color is not enough, flip the wings over again and return to the oven for 10-15 minutes.
Now let's quickly prepare the sauce for the wings. To do this, mix all the above ingredients in one bowl. Taste it, if there is not enough salt or anything, add the missing ingredient.
Now stir the finished wings in the honey sauce. The dish is ready. You can decorate by sprinkling with sesame seeds or chopped herbs.

- Grease the mold with oil, place the wings in it (right along with the onion and zest). Bake in an oven preheated to 190-200 degrees for 30-40 minutes.
And here is an interesting video on the topic
- We check the readiness of the wings, like all other meat products. We pierce it in some fleshy place and look at the color of the flowing juice. If the juice is not pinkish, but clear, then everything is ready.
- To ensure that the wings are crispy on all sides, it is advisable to turn them over from time to time. Usually turn over every 15-20 minutes.
- 5-10 minutes before readiness, the wings can be coated with a piece of butter. This provides additional flavor and a crispier crust.
- Some people make marinades based on kefir, sour cream, and cream. The chicken turns out more tender. To do this, take 0.5-1 glass of kefir and add to it your choice: soy sauce, garlic, herbs, any fragrant seasonings.
- Some people don’t like to bother with different seasonings, and therefore simply mix mayonnaise and ketchup in equal proportions. Surprisingly, the wings in this marinade turn out very, very tasty. It doesn’t matter whether you bake them or just fry them. Homemade classic!
- If your oven gets too hot, take care of the wings by covering them with a layer of foil. Bake for the first 20-25 minutes in foil (or in a special sleeve), then remove this “protection” and bake the wings for another 15-20 minutes until the desired degree of browning.
- If you want your wings to be covered with a crispy breading crust, then there is nothing complicated here either. Simply dip the wing in the beaten egg, then roll in breadcrumbs (or flour), and then bake as usual.
- If you want a smoky, smoky flavor in your dish, you don’t have to go to nature and light the coals. You can simply add 1-2 spoons of so-called liquid smoke to the marinade. No matter how they scold him, in fact, with it you get a dish that is even less harmful than when frying in “natural” fire and smoke.
Do not be mistaken that chicken wings can only be used to prepare a tasty and strong broth. But preparing a wide variety of dishes is quite easy. You might be surprised how delicious chicken wings can be prepared using fairly simple recipes and an affordable range of ingredients, spices and sauces.

Let's begin our journey.
Grilled chicken wings marinated with mayonnaise and curry
This incredible recipe is perfect for both the grill and the oven.

The marinade does not require much time before preparing the chicken, so the wings are easy to prepare immediately upon arrival at the dacha or before going on a picnic. The ingredients are simple and available in any store, which makes this recipe as valuable as possible. But with such simplicity, the result will more than please you.
To prepare you will need:

Preparation:
1. First, prepare the chicken wings for baking - rinse thoroughly and dry with kitchen paper towels. Using a sharp knife, cut the skin in the center of the wing to straighten it.

2. Thoroughly salt the chicken lids placed in a deep bowl or pan, add mayonnaise and all the spices. You don't have to add garlic, but it will go well with this option if you still want it.
3. Leave the wings to marinate for at least 2-3 hours, or even better, overnight. To reduce cooking time, the skin on the wings can be cut, but only barely, so that they do not fall apart during baking.
4. The grill grate needs to be heated well, then you won’t have to lubricate it with additional oil. Place the marinated meat and bake until done, but no less than 20-25 minutes, being careful not to dry out the dish.
ADVICE! To remove the wings from the grill as carefully as possible, you need to press down between the grill with a fork - this will allow you to separate the “done” meat and remove it without losing a single piece of tasty meat.
The finished dish can be served with coarsely chopped fresh vegetables, boiled potato tubers and a variety of sauces.
