    These Baked Turkey Wings are so full of flavor, easy to put together and a whole less complicated than roasting a whole turkey! The turkey is tender with still a bit of a bite to it, garlicky and just adorned with rich bold flavors. And easy turkey recipe the whole family will love!

    Baked Turkey Wings Recipe

    If roasting a whole turkey doesn't cut it for you, here is an alternative turkey recipe that you may want to try. This is a completely stress-free recipe and after making it, I am contemplating if I want to ever roast a whole turkey again!

    Ingredients for Baked Turkey Wings

    Baked Turkey Wings Recipe

    To make Baked Turkey Wings, you need turkey wings, garlic powder, dried thyme, dried parsley, chicken bouillon powder, melted butter, salt, and black pepper.

    You could use fresh herbs/spices of course but there is very little difference in taste compared to when you use dried herbs. So I just go with dried herbs/spices since they are easier to use anyway.

    How to Make Baked Turkey Wings

    1. Cut the turkey wings at the joints then discard the tips or save them for making stock. Pour all ingredients over the turkey and rub well to ensure that the seasoning gets all around the flesh. Place the turkey wings in a baking dish.

    Note that you should use a baking dish for this recipe, not a roasting pan. You'll get beautiful drippings from the turkey, which you can drizzle over your side dish or drizzle over the turkey right before serving.

    2. Place the turkey in the oven and let it cook at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 full hour. Halfway through the baking, turn the pan to ensure even distribution of heat.

    After that, the turkey develops a nice golden color and crispy skin on the outside. It also has beautiful drippings which taste so good! The blend of spices gives it an incredible taste and you don't even have to marinate the turkey overnight to get that taste!

    This Baked Turkey Wings recipe requires no marinating time or defrosting time. Simple cut some turkey wings, wash them, marinate and pop into the oven. If you are looking for a last minute Thanksgiving dinner idea, this one works perfectly!

    What Goes with Baked Turkey Wings?

    Baked Turkey Wings goes well with several side dishes like:

    1. Jollof Rice
    2. Mashed Potatoes
    3. Tostones (twice fried plantains)
    4. Any potato side dish!

    Hope you enjoy this Baked Turkey Wings recipe, friends and have a very happy Thanksgiving!!

    Ingredients
    • 4 turkey wings
    • 1 tablespoon chicken bouillon powder
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
    • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
    • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
    • 2 tablespoons salted butter - melted
    Instructions
    1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

    2. Rinse turkey wings then slit the wings at the joints. (Discard the wing tips or keep them for making stock/broth). Pat the turkey pieces dry with paper towel.

    3. Place the turkey pieces in a baking dish then add all the other ingredients. Mix well so the seasoning coats all of the turkey.

    4. Place in preheated oven and bake for one hour until the turkey is golden and crispy on the outside.

    5. Serve warm with your favorite side dish.

    Recipe Notes

    1. I use butter in this recipe because the butter gives so much flavor to the baked turkey. Alternately, you could use two tablespoons of oil.

    2. Make ahead tip: Mix turkey with all the ingredients, place in baking dish then wrap with a plastic wrap and place in the fridge. The next day, simply unwrap it and place it in the oven to bake. Be sure to take the turkey out of the fridge 30 minutes before baking so it can come to room temperature before going into the oven.

    3. I used 4 turkey wings here which measure at about 4-5 pounds (2-2.5 kg). If your turkey wings are smaller, reduce the salt if not, they will be too salty.

    These Baked Turkey Wings are so full of flavor, easy to put together and a whole less complicated than roasting a whole turkey! #ThanksgivingTurkey #TurkeyRecipes #Dinner #PreciousCore

      Hello there😉 I am planning to make this dish today, Sunday(September 15) dinner. In the past I have struggled with the tenderness of baking or just cooking turkey wings period. I’m hoping the garlic and other spices help in tenderizing my wings. I have seen and made several of your dishes, I fancy myself a “Bad Girl”,in the kitchen... no not that kinda bad girl😳, I step outside the box, add to or take away jus to add my flare to the dish. I’m a Southern Gal through and through so cooking is my passion. Oh Yeap and I love to tell stories of this cooking life I love and cherish. Well enough jabberin, let me get busy on these wings cause the boys are always ready to test and enjoy my dinner creations. Be blessed my friend.
