Salt-baked chicken wings are a beloved dish, crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and bursting with savory flavor. Here’s a simple guide to making them at home.
Ingredients: 1 lb chicken wings, 2 tbsp coarse salt, 1 tbsp five-spice powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp cooking oil, 1 egg (beaten), Green onions (for garnish).
Steps:
1. Prep the Wings: Rinse wings and pat dry. Use a fork to pierce the skin, helping it crisp up.
2. Marinate: In a bowl, mix wings with beaten egg, cooking oil, five-spice powder, and garlic powder. Let sit for 20 minutes.
3. Coat with Salt: Spread coarse salt on a baking tray. Place wings on the salt, pressing gently to coat.
4. Bake: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake for 30–35 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
5. Garnish and Serve: Remove wings, sprinkle with chopped green onions, and serve hot with a dipping sauce if desired.
Tips: For extra crunch, air-fry at 380°F (190°C) for 15 minutes instead of baking. Adjust salt to taste—coarse salt creates a crispy crust while locking in moisture. Enjoy this easy, flavorful dish as a snack or party appetizer!
