Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds chicken wings, split into flats and drums
- 2 ears corn on the cob, halved
- 1 pound sausage, sliced thick
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 400°F. Line a baking tray with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Rinse the chicken wings under cool water and pat them dry using paper towels. This step is essential as it helps the skin get crispy when baked. Next, season the wings with half of the Old Bay and Cajun seasonings, tossing them lightly to ensure an even coating. If desired, you can drizzle a light layer of oil over the wings; this will help them crisp up beautifully.
- Place the seasoned wings onto the prepared baking tray in a single layer. It’s important not to overcrowd the tray to allow each wing to cook evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and almost cooked through. The baking time may vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on them to prevent overbaking. This initial step gets the wings started on their journey to deliciousness!
- While the chicken wings are baking, take a moment to prepare the corn and sausage. Cut the corn on the cob in half to create manageable pieces. Slice the sausage thickly; this will allow it to hold up during cooking and ensure a great bite. Once your chicken wings are nearly done baking, you can set these aside until you’re ready to combine everything.
- In a medium saucepan, melt your unsalted butter over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add the minced garlic, stirring occasionally until it becomes fragrant—about 1-2 minutes. Then, add the remaining Old Bay seasoning, paprika, Cajun seasoning, lemon juice, and brown sugar. Stir the mixture until it bubbles and becomes aromatic; this will enhance the flavors and create a rich sauce. Be careful not to boil it too long to preserve the freshness of the garlic and lemon.
- Remove the wings from the oven and place them in a large mixing bowl or tray, adding in the halved corn and sliced sausage next. Pour the buttery garlic sauce over the top and toss everything together to coat evenly. This step is where the magic happens—make sure each piece gets a generous amount of sauce. After mixing, let the dish sit for about 5–10 minutes. This resting period allows the flavors to meld beautifully. Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley, and enjoy!
Notes
For best results, use fresh chicken wings rather than frozen to enhance flavor and texture.
