Oh, yum! Juicy, flavorful wings! I had no idea how great of a marinade salsa verde could be. It really added a fantastic flavor to these baked salsa verde wings. They were so tender, yet still had a nicely crunchy skin. Served with citrus salsa verde cream sauce for dipping, I really enjoyed these wings! They are a total change from my usual way of making chicken wings, which is either in an air fryer or on a super-hot grill. And occasionally, in a deep-fryer.
I’m A Baked Wing Believer Now
If you have any juices on the baking dish as the wings cook, brush it back onto the wings for extra flavor. I found it important to turn the wings often to get a nice even cook and also crunchy skin. Plus, I did not have to put the wings under the broiler to crunch them up, these baked salsa verde wings didn’t need it!
I found the inspiration for this recipe on Campbell’s website.
