• 4 teaspoons freshly ground coarse black pepper
• 4 teaspoons sesame oil
• 5 cloves garlic, finely chopped

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
2. LIne a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease lightly with cooking spray or oil.
3. In a small bowl, mix together salt and pepper.
4. Place chicken wings on the baking sheet. Sprinkle the salt and pepper mixture over the wings, making sure to cover evenly.
5. Bake for 15 minutes then turn and bake for another 15-20 minutes until crispy and cooked through.
