Notes
Make sure to dry the wings really well before rubbing them with the seasoning. This helps them get extra crispy!
If the seasoning doesnt want to stick to the chicken, rub the chicken with olive oil and then rub on the seasoning.
Don't skip letting the chicken rest after being seasoned. It helps deepen the flavor.
