Description

These oven-baked sesame chicken wings offer a healthier alternative to deep-fried versions without sacrificing crunch or flavor. The wings are coated in a delicious mixture of melted butter, dry breadcrumbs, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and toasted sesame seeds, creating a savory, nutty crust that holds up beautifully. A hint of cayenne pepper and oregano adds warmth and aromatic depth, while the baking process ensures the meat stays juicy inside. Perfect for game day gatherings, casual weeknight dinners, or as a standout appetizer at parties, these wings are easy to prepare and crowd-pleasing. Serve them hot with your favorite dipping sauce for an irresistible snack that combines crispy texture with rich, cheesy notes.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease it.
  2. Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure the coating sticks well.
  3. In a shallow dish, combine the dry bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, sesame seeds, oregano, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Mix well.
  4. In a separate small bowl, prepare the melted butter.
  5. Dip each chicken wing into the melted butter, ensuring it is lightly coated.
  6. Roll the buttered wings in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to coat completely.
  7. Arrange the coated wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, placing them meaty side down.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown, crispy, and cooked through with no pink remaining inside.
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Note

For extra crispy wings, place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet and arrange the wings on the rack. This allows air to circulate around the wings, promoting even browning.

If you prefer a spicier kick, increase the amount of cayenne pepper to 1/2 teaspoon or add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the breadcrumb mixture.

You can substitute half of the breadcrumbs with crushed cornflakes for an extra crunchy texture.

Leftover wings can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350ðF for 10 minutes to restore crispiness; avoid microwaving to prevent sogginess.

Ensure chicken wings reach an internal temperature of 165ðF (74ðC) for safe consumption.
