2. French Turkey Wings à la Nice
This turkey wings recipe is sure to please a crowd.
It’s a unique and impressive appetizer and my go-to when I don’t feel like doing the dishes.
This one-pot wonder keeps it simple and means I don’t need to spend an hour at the sink!
The key to this dish is in the sauce – a traditional French dressing made with ingredients like tomatoes, olives, rosemary, and thyme.
The rich and flavorful sauce takes the wings to the next level, making them irresistible.
3. Smothered Turkey Wings
Smothered turkey wings are a Thanksgiving staple in my house. I make them the next day and use up all my leftovers in the process.
It’s a lot like biscuits and gravy – and I often make biscuits to go with it.

4. Honey Baked Turkey Wings
This recipe is so easy to make, and it’s always a hit with my friends and family.
The key to making these yummy wings is to baste them with honey and spices before baking.
This will give them a nice, golden color and a delicious taste.
If possible, leave them in the fridge overnight so the turkey can soak up all the fantastic flavors.
That said, they’ll still be delicious if all they get is 30 minutes.
5. Honey Dijon Baked Turkey Wings
Honey-mustard turkey wings are the perfect blend of sweet and savory.
The honey Dijon glaze is sticky and tangy, while the baked turkey wings are crispy and juicy.
The key to getting this recipe right is to season the turkey with salt and pepper first, bake for an hour, and then apply the glaze.
Bake that for another 20 minutes, and you’re good to go.
The best thing about this glaze is that you can use it on any other type of meat – chicken, pork, or beef!
6. Honey Garlic Turkey Wings
Honey and garlic are often used together and for good reason. The sweet with the savory is too good to resist.
The key to making these wings is to cook them low and slow so that the honey glaze can caramelize and the meat is fall-off-the-bone tender.
The wings are best served hot, straight out of the oven. Combine them with some veggies or a salad for a complete meal.
But be warned: they’re so good, you won’t be able to stop at just one.
7. Crispy Oven Roasted Turkey Wings

This two-step process ensures that the skin gets nice and crisp while the meat stays juicy and flavorful.
Serve these wings with your favorite dipping sauce, and enjoy!

10. Deep Fried Turkey Wings
Deep-fried turkey wings are a delicious, crunchy treat that’s perfect for any occasion.
When done right, they are crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
The wings are first soaked in brine and then deep-fried, resulting in a crunchy, flavorful treat that gets better with every bite.
Make sure to marinate it in the brine for at least 4 hours to really bring out the flavor, and then pat dry before frying.
When I’m feeling extra spicy, I like to add some chili flakes to the brine to introduce more heat and pizzaz.
