Notes
Note 1: Canola oil, avocado, or olive oil are my top oils to use.
Note 2: I love these wings mild without the chili powder and cumin. The family loves spice. Add chili powder and cumin to a batch of wings for the spice fans.
Note 3: Use a paper towel to dry to dry off the wings before adding the oil and rub. Ensures the rub sticks well to wings.
Note 4: When placing wings on the rack, space the wings at least an inch apart so they cook evenly.
Note 5: If you have the time, place the rub on the chicken the night before and keep covered in the fridge overnight.
