Ingredients
- •3 lbs chicken wings, separated into flats and drums
- •½ tsp baking powder
- •For dry rub:
- •2 tbsp brown sugar
- •1 tbsp smoked paprika
- •1 tbsp kosher salt
- •2 tsp garlic powder
- •2 tsp onion powder
- •1 tsp black pepper
- •1 tsp cayenne pepper
- •1 tsp dried oregano
- •½ tsp cumin
- •½ tsp mustard powder
- •Ranch or blue cheese dressing for serving
Instructions
Make dry rub by combining all spices in a bowl. Mix thoroughly.
Pat wings completely dry and toss with half the dry rub mixture. Refrigerate uncovered for 1–4 h.
Preheat sous vide water bath to 162°F (72°C).
Toss wings with baking powder and seal in bags. Submerge and cook for 1 h 45 min to 2 h.
Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Line baking sheet with parchment.
Remove wings from bags and pat completely dry. This is critical for crispy skin.
Arrange wings on baking sheet in single layer.
Roast 15–20 min, flipping halfway, until deeply golden and crispy.
While still hot, toss wings in bowl with remaining dry rub to coat.
Serve immediately with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
Notes
- •Don't use all the rub before cooking—reserve some for the final toss
- •The baking powder creates extra-crispy skin that holds the rub beautifully
- •These are perfect for those who prefer no sauce
