Ingredients
Instructions
- Clip tips off wings if desired.
- Arrange wings on a cookie sheet and spray lightly with Pam cooking spray.
- Sprinkle wings with dry Italian dressing.
- Bake at 400°F for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Turn wings and sprinkle with remaining dressing.
- Bake for an additional 20 minutes.
Tips & Substitutions
For extra flavor, marinate the wings in the Italian dressing for a few hours before baking. If you don't have Pam cooking spray, you can brush the wings lightly with olive oil. Consider using a different seasoning mix if you want to switch it up, such as a garlic herb blend. Be sure to flip the wings halfway through for even cooking and crispiness.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the wings hot, garnished with fresh parsley or your choice of dipping sauce, such as ranch or blue cheese. They pair beautifully with a side of celery and carrot sticks, or can be enjoyed alongside Aunt Mary'S Spinach Balls for a hearty spread at your next gathering. Perfect for game day or family dinners.
Storage & Reheating
Leftover wings can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes until heated through and crispy. Alternatively, you can microwave them, but they may lose some crispiness.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use frozen wings for this recipe?
Yes, you can use frozen chicken wings. Just ensure to thaw them completely before cooking. This helps them cook evenly and ensures the seasoning adheres well. You may need to add a few extra minutes to the baking time if using frozen wings.
What can I substitute for Good Seasons Italian dressing?
If you don't have Good Seasons Italian dressing, you can make a simple substitute using dried Italian herbs, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt mixed with olive oil. This will provide a similar flavor profile and work well in this recipe.
How can I make these wings spicier?
To add some heat, sprinkle some cayenne pepper or crushed red pepper flakes onto the wings along with the Italian dressing. You can also toss the baked wings in your favorite hot sauce before serving for an extra kick.
