For the Wings

2 pounds Chicken Wings Separate into drumettes and flats for even cooking.
1 tablespoon Aluminum-Free Baking Powder Essential for achieving that desired crunch without metallic aftertaste.
1 teaspoon Salt Enhances the flavor and is vital for seasoning your wings.
0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper Adds warmth and complements the ranch flavor.
2 tablespoons Olive Oil Keeps wings moist and helps seasonings stick.
3 tablespoons Ranch Seasoning Mix Infuses wings with classic ranch flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place a wire rack on top for air circulation.
Pat the chicken wings very dry with paper towels. Separate the wings into drumettes and flats.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss the wings until evenly coated.
Drizzle olive oil over seasoned wings and toss again. Arrange wings in a single layer on the wire rack.
Bake the wings for 45-50 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown.
Increase the temperature to 425°F (220°C) for the last 10 minutes for extra crispiness.
Remove from the oven and toss the hot wings with ranch seasoning mix.
Serve immediately with celery sticks and your favorite dipping sauce.
