How to make keto baked chicken wings

First, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.  Then you will line 2 sheet pans with foil and place an oven safe rack on top of the foil.  Next, coat the rack with cooking spray.

Place the chicken wings in a large bowl along with the oil. Toss to coat evenly.  You then will add the remaining ingredients to the bowl. Toss the wings with the spice rub until they’re coated.

Next arrange the chicken wings in a single layer on the rack. Then bake the wings for 30 minutes, then flip and bake the wings for 15 minutes more, or until crispy and golden brown. 

Finally, garnish the wings with parsley before serving, if desired.

Tips for making crispy chicken wings

When cooking wings in the oven, you want to make sure that your wings are arranged in a single even layer. If you have large wings that are not detached into wings and drummettes then you may want to put the wings on a wire wrack to ensure that the heat is being distributed evenly to each wing.
