Baked Turkey Wings

  • 3–4 turkey wings, separated at the joints
    Ask your butcher to split them if you prefer less work at home.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
    Either adds richness; butter gives a deeper flavor.
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
    Adds sweetness and depth to the base of the dish.
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
    Fresh garlic infuses the broth with extra aroma.
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
    Smoked paprika adds even more flavor if available.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon thyme (dried or fresh)
    Fresh thyme is more aromatic, but dried is just as effective.
  • 1 cup chicken or turkey broth
    Keeps the meat moist while roasting and forms the base of a delicious pan sauce.
