“Instead of thinking about what you’re missing, try thinking about what you have that everyone else is missing.” – Darwin P. Kingsley
Old Bay seasoning is a classic, and yet, many people believe it is only meant for seafood. Not true my friends! Old Bay was meant for bigger & better things. If you’ve never tried it on chicken wings, you’re missing out – it adds a ton of flavor but doesn’t go overboard with heat. These chicken wings are juicy and flavorful, perfect for a game night or for some serious snack time.
For this recipe you can buy whole chicken wings and cut them in half but many grocery stores are selling pre-cut wings (often called wingettes, drumettes, or “party wings”) which makes the preparation for this recipe that much easier.
