how long to bake chicken wings at 425

The baking time for chicken wings at 425°F (220°C) can vary depending on the size of the wings and the level of crispiness desired. Here are some general guidelines:

* Small to medium-sized wings: 20-25 minutes
* Medium-sized wings: 25-30 minutes
* Large wings: 30-35 minutes
* Extra-large wings: 35-40 minutes

To achieve crispy skin, you can try the following:

1. Bake the wings for 20-25 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
2. Increase the oven temperature to broil (high heat) and broil for an additional 2-5 minutes, or until the skin is golden brown and crispy.

It’s also important to note that you should flip the wings halfway through the baking time to ensure even cooking.

Here’s a more detailed guide:

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
3. Arrange the chicken wings on the baking sheet in a single layer.
4. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the wings are cooked through and lightly browned.
5. Flip the wings halfway through the baking time.
6. If desired, increase the oven temperature to broil (high heat) and broil for an additional 2-5 minutes, or until the skin is golden brown and crispy.

Remember to always check the internal temperature of the wings to ensure they are cooked to a safe temperature of 165°F (74°C).
