My family loves crispy baked chicken wings! We don’t eat them all the time, since they’re not the healthiest or cheapest food out there, but when we do have them, I make them from scratch. I especially like to make them for sports game watching or other parties! But really, you don’t need any reason to whip up a batch of delicious crispy baked chicken wings. These Easy Taco Ranch Wings are quick to put together, are utterly delicious, and are great for dinner or watch parties!

These taco ranch wings are such a fun combo of flavor! And they’re so quick to put together that you can easily double or triple the recipe to make a big batch fast for a large crowd.
I’m always afraid of running out of my favorite seasoning mixes, so I keep a large container of taco seasoning and ranch seasoning on hand. I know you can make your own mixes, but when I’m in a rush (which is half of the time), I just don’t have the time to spare. There’s nothing wrong with using some packaged goods for convenience now and again!
1 ½ pounds of wingettes
1 teaspoon of olive oil or 3 teaspoons of ranch salad dressing
2 teaspoons of taco seasoning
2 teaspoon of ranch seasoning
Ranch dressing to garnish (optional)
Cilantro to garnish (optional)
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. In a large bowl add in wings and oil or salad dressing (I used oil this time, but I sometimes use ranch dressing if I want even more ranch flavor). Gently coat wings with oil.
3. Add in taco seasoning and ranch seasoning, toss wings to coat.
4. Add chicken to a baking dish, bake for 45 minutes or until cooked and at desired level of crispiness. You can finish them off in the broiler for a few minutes if you like.
