If you’ve been looking for a great classic wing recipe – look no further! I’ve got you covered here with these Whole30 Dry Rub Baked Wings. These are so easy to make, and they come together in no time at all. You can eat them as-is, or add a buffalo or BBQ sauce of choice.
What You Need to Make These Whole30 Dry Rub Wings
You only need a few simple ingredients to make this delicious appetizer.
- Chicken Wings – I like to use the wings and drumettes that are already separated. I find these at Costco or from Butcher Box. They are called “party wings”. You can also buy regular wings and separate them yourself!
- Olive oil or avocado oil
- Onion powder
- Garlic powder
- Paprika
- Ground mustard
- Salt
- Pepper
That’s it!
I’ve found that these crisp up nicely if you use an oven-safe baking rack on top of a baking sheet. If you place some tin foil on the pan, it makes for super easy clean up. If you don’t have a rack to bake them on, placing them directly on a baking sheet is fine!
How to Make these Whole30 Dry Rub Baked Wings
Preheat your oven to 400.
Pat your wings dry with paper towels. Place them in a large bowl. Mix the spices together in a separate small bowl. Pour the olive oil onto the chicken, followed by the spices. Use your hands to mix everything together well. The spices should stick to the chicken wings so they are completely coated.
Lay the wings out evenly on the baking rack so they aren’t overlapping. Bake for 45 minutes. Check them halfway through and flip if they are getting too dark. (I didn’t need to flip mine). Broil for an additional 5 minutes at the end if you want them super crispy!
Serve with your favorite dairy free ranch or dipping sauce. I love Tessemae’s ranch!
You can also coat them with buffalo sauce or anything else once cooked!

These wings were AH-MAZING! I’m not a wing fan but the rub was to die for. My husband made them for a NYE appetizer and they did not disappoint. Will definitely keep this recipe on hand and make these again and again. I love all of Mary’s recipes on the blog and in her cookbook because they are not only super easy but so so so delicious!
My husband requested this recipe to our “usual” way to do wings. It definitely stepped our wing game!
We loved the flavor and crispiness (I didn’t flip, but baked 55 min).
Great rub!!
