Instructions

Wash and pat chicken wings dry to remove excess moisture, then prepare your BBQ sauce in a bowl and preheat the oven to 425°Fahrenheit (220°Celsius).
Place wings in a bowl, pour BBQ sauce over them, and brush or toss until evenly coated; for stronger flavor, dip each wing directly in the sauce.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to deepen the flavor, or skip if short on time.
Line a baking sheet with parchment, arrange wings in a single layer, and bake for 40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Notes

Pat the wings dry before adding sauce. This helps them crisp up in the oven.
Use a wire rack on top of your baking sheet for even cooking and better airflow.
For extra crispy skin, broil the wings for 2–3 minutes at the end of baking.
Save some BBQ sauce for brushing on after baking for an extra saucy finish.
Toast the sesame seeds before sprinkling for more flavor.
Let the wings rest for a few minutes after baking to keep them juicy inside.
