• whole turkey wings – Look for fresh, medium-sized whole turkey wings, about 5 pounds total.

• seasoning – This baked turkey wings recipe is extra delicious with a homemade flavor poultry seasoning and Cajun seasoning (takes 5 minutes each!), but store-bought ones will work too. You will also need sea salt.
• onion – When cut into large pieces, they act as a “shelf” (for the wings) while adding flavor.I used yellow onions but you can substitute white or red onions or omit them and just use one Comes with baking pan.
• chicken soup -The broth in the bottom of the pan will help keep the wings moist while baking.I use low sodium chicken brothbut you can use regular chicken stock, or make bone brothalso.

Variations: Use simpler seasonings.

If you don’t like the bold flavors of Cajun and poultry seasonings, you can simply season your turkey wings with individual spices.A great combination is dried rosemary and thyme (or italian seasoning), garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper.
