Old Bay Wings

July 18, 2014 By Tekesha 7 Comments

Old Bay Wings

I’ve mentioned before on the blog that I’m allergic to shellfish. However, steamed crab with a ton of Old Bay Seasoning is one of things that I will torture myself with a fewΒ bites of despite my allergy. I was browsing around the internet the other day and came across Serious Eats’ recipe for Old Bay Wings. I can’t believe it never occurred to me before to put delicious Old Bay Seasoning on things other than seafood! I had to try it.

Old Bay Wings

They were super good! The wings are baked in the oven with a secret ingredient that makes them super crispy on the outside and then brushed or tossed with a fiery glaze. I’ve adapted the recipe slightly to make more wings and to account for my love of Old Bay.

You’ll need:

  • 4 lbs chicken wings
  • 4 tbsp Old Bay Seasoning
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 4 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 4 tbsp Frank’s Hot Sauce

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.

Trim the tips off your wings and separate them into drumettes and flats. I usually put my tips in a plastic bag in the freezer and save them for making chicken stock.

Place your drumettes and flats in a large bowl.

Add your baking powder and Old Bay Seasoning to the wings.

Mix thoroughly.

Arrange wings on a wire rack on top of a foil-lined baking sheet.

You can bake immediately or let this marinate up to overnight.

Bake for 25 minutes.

Flip them over and bake for another 15 minutes.

Set aside about a quarter of the wings right now. These wings have a SUPER CRISPY, Old Bay crust that you will love eating all on their own.

We’re going to take the remaining wings and brush them in a spicy, savory sauce.

In a small microwave-safe bowl, add butter, Worcestershire sauce, and Frank’s Hot sauce.

Old Bay Wings

Heat in the microwave until the butter is melted, approximately 15 seconds.

Brush the mixture over the wings or toss the wings in a bowl with the sauce.

Serve.

    Tekesha !!!!!! These wings are amazing. I made them tonight for my husband, he loves Old Bay wings. Usually the wings we get are fried, so this was a small difference for him. Nonetheless they were a huge hit with him. The only thing that didnt turn out right was the crispness πŸ™ a few were crispy but majority weren’t. Thank you so much for a great quick recipe πŸ™‚

      Jinx! We ate these tonight again as well, Kelly! I’m so glad they were a hit, despite the lack of crunch. Could be anything from oven calibration to water content in your wings. Here’s hoping next time they turn out even better! πŸ˜€
