Instructions
- Step 1: Pat dry 1 pound boneless chicken wings and season evenly with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Step 2: Add the seasoned chicken wings to the skillet in a single layer and sear for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F. Remove wings and set aside.
