- 6-8 turkey wings
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
- Rinse the turkey wings and pat them dry with paper towels. Season them generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, paprika, and cayenne pepper (if using). Mix well.
- Place the turkey wings on the prepared baking sheet and brush the marinade over the wings, making sure they are well coated.
- Bake the turkey wings for 40-45 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the wings has reached 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Remove the turkey wings from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. These wings are delicious on their own, but you can also serve them with a dipping sauce of your choice, such as BBQ or buffalo sauce.
