instructions
    1

    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).

    2

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken wings, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and basil. Mix well until the wings are evenly coated.

    3

    Cut the bell peppers into strips and add them to the bowl. Toss gently to mix them with the chicken wings.

    4

    Arrange the chicken wings and bell peppers in a single layer in a baking dish.

    5

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes or until the chicken wings are golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).

    6

    After 30 minutes, check on the wings. If they look crispy enough, remove from the oven; if not, you can broil them on high for an additional 5 minutes for extra crispness.
