- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
- In a large bowl, combine chicken wings with olive oil, tossing until coated.
- In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and baking powder.
- Sprinkle the spice mixture over the wings and toss until coated.
