2- Marinate the Wings:
- Place the chicken wings in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.

- Seal the bag or cover the dish and let the wings marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for best results.
3- Preheat the Oven:

4- Bake the Wings:

- Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the wings are cooked through and caramelized.
