Ingredients

For the Chicken Wings:

  • 2 pounds Frozen chicken wings (thawed)
  • 3 tablespoons Italian seasoning
  • Honey (to taste for serving)

Instructions

Preparation Steps:

  • Start by thawing your frozen chicken wings. You can do this by placing them in the refrigerator overnight or using the cold water method if you're short on time.
  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). A hot oven ensures crispy, golden wings.
  • Once thawed, pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This step is crucial for achieving a crispy texture.
  • In a mixing bowl, toss the chicken wings with the Italian seasoning until they are evenly coated. Make sure every wing is well-seasoned to maximize flavor.
  • Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup. Arrange the seasoned wings in a single layer on the sheet, ensuring they aren’t overcrowded.
  • Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through. They should be golden brown and crispy when done. Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Once the wings are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Drizzle honey over the wings to taste, allowing it to add a sweet finishing touch.
  • Serve your Easy 3-Ingredient Chicken Wings with Herbs and Honey warm, and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors.

Notes

  • Ensure your wings are completely thawed before cooking for even cooking.
  • Don't skip the drying step; moisture is the enemy of crispiness.
  • Feel free to experiment with different seasonings to change things up.
