My wife, daughters and I often enjoy these buttery wings while watching TV on Saturday nights. The crisp coating of french-fried potato chips is also great on the chicken tenders I make from cut-up boneless chicken breasts. -Jonathan Hershey, Akron, Ohio

Ingredients

12 whole chicken wings (about 2-1/2 pounds)
2-1/2 cups crushed potato chips
1 can (2.8 ounces) french-fried onions, crushed
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon onion salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
2 large eggs
1/4 cup butter, melted

Directions

Line a 15x10x1-in. baking pan with foil and grease the foil; set aside. Cut chicken wings into three sections; discard wing tip section.
In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the potato chips, onions, cornmeal and seasonings. In a shallow bowl, beat eggs. Dip chicken wings in eggs. Add shrimp to bag, a few at a time. Seal bag and shake to coat; press crumb mixture into chicken.
Place wings in prepared pan; drizzle with butter. Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until chicken juices run clear and coating is crisp.

Editor's Note

Uncooked chicken wing sections (wingettes) may be substituted for whole chicken wings.

I made these with Chicken Breast instead of wings. My 13 yr old is particular and really liked it. I thought it was good, but not amazing.

Excellent! I made these for a party recently and they were a huge hit. They are nice and crispy - you would never know they were baked!
