TACO CHICKEN WINGS



Taco Chicken Wings image

This is spiced-up version of a recipe I found on a supermarket recipe leaflet. I find the seasoning is enough for 3 lbs or maybe some more, wings.

Provided by PetsRus

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h5m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (1 1/4 ounce) envelope taco seasoning mix
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon cornmeal
1/2-1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 lbs chicken wings (tips removed)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • In a plastic bag mix together the taco seasoning mix, cornstarch, cornmeal, chili, cumin and oregano.
  • Add several wings to the bag and shake to give it a coating, repeat with the rest of the drumettes.
  • Place the wings in a single layer on a greased baking sheet(s).
  • Bake for approx 50 minutes, turning once or twice.
  • Serve with your favorite dip.

Tips:

  • To ensure crispy wings, pat them dry with paper towels before coating them. This will help the coating adhere and prevent soggy wings.
  • Use a combination of baking powder and cornstarch in the coating for extra crispiness. Baking powder helps the wings puff up, while cornstarch creates a golden-brown crust.
  • Don't overcrowd the wings in the air fryer. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and becoming crispy.
  • Shake the wings halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
  • Serve the wings with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch, blue cheese, or honey mustard.

Conclusion:

These crispy taco wings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for game day, parties, or a casual meal.
