Spicy Oven-Baked Breaded Chicken Wings (Lower-Fat)
A great alternative to deep-fryed wings, make these as spicy as you like by adjusting the cayenne pepper, I have listed 1/2 teaspoon you may increase to suit you heat level, use dry breadcrumbs only for this, all amounts may be doubled to serve 6-8
Servings 4-6
Ingredients:
1 large egg
1 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons hot sauce
2/3 cup dry breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder (garlic lovers increase to 1-1/2 teaspoons)
1 teaspoon dried basil (rubbed between fingers to release the flavor)
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (can increase)
1/2 teaspoon paprika
10 whole chicken wings
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Set oven rack to lowest position.
Grease a large jelly-roll baking pan.
In a shallow bowl whisk egg with water and hot sauce until combined.
In another shallow bowl combine dry breadcrumbs with the next 5 ingredients.
Cut the wings in half at the joint, then slice off and discard the wing tip section.
Dip the wings firstly in the egg mixture allowing any excess to drip off, then coat in the breadcrumb mixture.
Place onto baking sheet.
Bake for 25-30 minutes turning every 10 minutes.
