Baking Powder:

Baking powder is usually used in baking to have a bubbly texture. I used 2 tablespoons of aluminum-free baking powder here to make the coating of dry rub extra crispy.

Chili Powder:

Chili powder gives spice rub the needed heat and color. 1 teaspoon would be enough. Use more if you want spicier.

Smoked Paprika:

Smoked paprika gives the wings a nice smokiness that is found when grilled. Use 1 tablespoon of smoked paprika for our dry wings rub recipe.

Black Pepper:

Black pepper is an obvious ingredient in almost all sauces, rubs, and dressings. It gives our rub for wings the needed heat and a nice zing. Use 1 teaspoon in the recipe. 

Garlic Powder:

Garlic powder makes dry rub a little pungent and complements other flavors. Use 1 teaspoon to make your wings extra flavorful.

Sea Salt:

Sea salt gives rubs and seasonings a nice texture. The spices provide flavor, but it needs to be intensified with salt. Use 1 teaspoon or more if you prefer.

Oregano:

Oregano has a spicy and pungent flavor that creates a dramatic effect in our dry rub. I used ½ teaspoon in the recipe.

Coconut  Sugar:

Coconut sugar has a strong caramel-like flavor and is healthier than refined white sugar.1 teaspoon of coconut sugar balances out the spicy flavors.

Cumin:

Cumin gives warmth to our seasoning for wings. 1 teaspoon of cumin adds a nice dash to the taste. 

Dried Parsley:

Dried parsley is slightly sweet and contains a wide range of vitamins. I used ½ teaspoon of dried parsley in our dry rub.
