Instrucciones

Crispy Baked Chicken

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 C).

Parboil. Bring a pot of water with a sprinkle of salt to a boil. Once boiling, place in the chicken wings and continue to simmer for 7 minutes. Drain the water.

Dry the chicken. Place the chicken wings on to a wire rack to continue to drain the water off the chicken. After a few minutes, dry the chicken on a paper towel. Make sure the wings are dry to ensure the skin crisps.

Cover a large metal pan with aluminum foil and oil generously. This will make sure the wings do not stick. Place the chicken wings on the oiled foil with the fattier side down.*(The first side down will crisp up more).

Bake the chicken for 25 minutes. Flip the chicken and bake for another 8-10 minutes, until the skin is golden and crisp on both sides.
