Notes

1. For maximum crispiness, pat the chicken wings very dry with paper towels before coating. Arrange them on a wire rack set inside a baking sheet to allow hot air to circulate completely. Consider increasing the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C) for the last 10-15 minutes, monitoring closely to prevent burning.2. For deeper flavor, allow the marinated wings to rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours. A pinch of smoked paprika can add an earthy note, and a dash of cayenne pepper brings extra heat. Freshly squeezed lime juice over the hot wings brightens the flavor.3. Do not overcrowd the baking sheet; this steams the wings rather than baking them crisp. Use two baking sheets if necessary to ensure a single layer.
