Baked Turmeric Chicken Wings

These healthy baked turmeric chicken wings have only 4 simple ingredients. They are perfect for game day, or for an appetizer. They have quickly become my kids favorite snack!

This easy whole30 turmeric chicken wing recipe started out because I was experimenting with gluten free game day recipes. Chicken wings are always so popular when we have friends over to watch the Warriors play :-).

Turmeric

Who knew turmeric could be so easy to use in recipes? Turmeric is a healthy anti-inflammatory powerhouse. It makes these wings bright yellow. You may consider baking these on parchment paper because the yellow turmeric stained my baking sheet yellow!

You are going to love the super easy 4 ingredient baked turmeric chicken wing recipe I came up with!

I have accidentally finally found the chicken recipe that even my protein averse picky daughter will eat! These chicken drumettes bake up to be crispy on the outside, and juicy on the inside. Hello crispy skin! My kids didn’t even hesitate at the bright yellow color! (They must be getting used to all of the turmeric recipes I have been making lately!)

If you have been reading for a while, you know how much of a picky my daughter is. She hates protein and would totally live on cheese and carbs if I let her. I didn’t expect her to eat almost all of these wings in one sitting!

This paleo chicken wing recipe is definitely one of my new favorite ways to use turmeric.  You will love how easy it is to cook with turmeric. Do you have a favorite turmeric recipe?
