Chicken wings are always a party favorite. These chicken wings are soaked in dill pickle juice to bring a unique flavor and make these wings extra juicy.
The seasoned baking powder coating ensures these wings will be extra crispy.
This is a great recipe to make when you’ve just finished a jar of pickles. Use the pickle juice for the brine.
Serve these Dill Pickle Wings with Dill Ranch Dressing.
Recipe Tips:
- Fresh or dried dill can be used for marinating.
- You want to remove as much moisture as possible with paper towels after you brine the chicken wings.
- Optional step: When you flip the wings halfway, take a basting brush and pickle juice, baste the wings for an extra splash of dill flavor. Do not use the same pickle juice from the brine, use clean pickle juice.
- Add more herbs like parsley or chives.
- If using frozen chicken wings, thaw in the fridge overnight first.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer until warmed through and crispy.
