Ingredients
  

  • For the Wings
  • 4 lb. turkey wings split into flats and drums
  • 3 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 large onion sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp. Italian seasoning
  • 1 tbsp. smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp. cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp. black pepper
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • For the Gravy
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • Pan drippings from wings
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 4 tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • tsp. Italian seasoning
  • ¼ tsp. Red chili flakes

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the oven and preheat it to 375 degrees F. Transfer the turkey wings to a roasting pan and drizzle some olive oil.
  • Mix minced garlic, Italian seasoning, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt in a small bowl.
  • Pour the spice mixture over the turkey wings and toss gently to make an even coating.
  • Spread onions on coated wings and cover with aluminum foil. Place in the oven and bake for 60 minutes.
  • After 60 minutes, take the wings out of the oven and transfer the drippings to a measuring cup. Set aside.
  • To make the gravy:
  • Add butter to a skillet over medium heat. Once the butter melts, add garlic and cook until fragrant.
  • Add flour and red chili flakes, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Then pour in reserved drippings and gradually add the stock. Bring the mixture to a simmer for 5 to 7 minutes or until it becomes slightly thick.
  • Once slight thickness is achieved, pour the gravy over the turkey wings and transfer them back to the oven; bake uncovered for 30 minutes or until soft and thoroughly cooked.
  • Once done, remove the wings from the oven and serve hot with rice.
