How to Make Allison's Taco Wings

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, taco seasoning, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and pepper.
  2. Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss to coat completely. Ensure all wings are well-marinated.
  3. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
  4. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  5. Arrange the marinated wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 45-50 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and cooked through. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  7. Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings! Enjoy!
