These delicious Cajun Chicken Wings are seasoned with a spicy and flavorful Cajun Dry Rub, wrapped in Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil, and grilled to perfection. They’re so crispy and delicious, that you won’t be able to stop eating them.

Thanks to my friends at Reynolds Wrap for sponsoring this recipe.

Making moist and perfectly cooked chicken wings isn’t difficult if you know this chef’s secret. I use Reynolds Wrap Heavy Duty foil when I grill wings because it locks in moisture and flavor, and it makes clean-up even easier! And best of all no more burnt wings!

Reynolds Wrap® has been a fixture in my kitchen for as long as I can remember. At work and at home I trust Reynolds Wrap® to help me create deliciousness in the kitchen!

Everyone knows that Chef Dennis loves his chicken wings and I love coming up with new ways to enjoy those delectable wings. My Cajun seasoning gives these wings an earthy and spicy flavor coating that takes them to a whole new level of deliciousness. Trust me, this is one delicious Cajun Chicken Wing Recipe!

*Not a fan of heat, leave out the cayenne and if you do like hot wings, add a little bit more cayenne to the seasonings.

What ingredients do I need to make Cajun Chicken Wings?

Ingredients to make cajun chicken wings

Let’s start by gathering the ingredients we need to make Cajun Chicken Wings. In Chef Speak this is called the “Mise en Place” which translates to “Everything in its Place”.

Not only does setting your ingredients up ahead of time speed up the cooking process, it also helps ensure you have everything you need to make the dish.

*When cutting your wings save and freeze the wing tip for soups. I only serve the drumette and wingette portion of the chicken wing.

How do you make Cajun Chicken Wings?

Start by patting the chicken wings with paper towels. You want the wings dry before adding the seasonings.

  • Add the seasonings to a small bowl.
  • Mix the seasonings together.
  • Place the wings in a large bowl and sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the wings.
  • Toss the wings to coat them with the seasoning.

  • Arrange the wings in a single layer on a wire rack set inside a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Leave space between each wing. Refrigerate the wings uncovered for 6-8 hours or overnight if possible.
  • Let the wings come to room temperature, then place half the wings on a 12×13 inch sheet of Reynolds Wrap Heavy Duty Foil and fold over the foil to seal the wings in a pouch.
  • Going in the opposite direction wrap the foil package in another sheet of Reynolds Wrap Heavy Duty foil. Seal the package so the juices won’t escape. The layer of foil also protects the wings from burning.

How to cook chicken wings?

There are so many ways to cook chicken wings and most recipes can be adapted to cook them with your favorite method. Whether it’s in the oven, air-fryer, deep fryer or my favorite way, on the grill my Cajun Chicken Wings will come out delicious every time.

And while I do love that grilled flavor, I tend to get the wings a little too crispy….. and if you ask my wife she might even say I burn them. Sooooooo, I wrap the wings in Reynolds Wrap Heavy Duty foil to keep the sugar from over caramelizing. It also keeps the wings super moist, not letting them dry out from the direct heat of the grill. That’s a win-win in my book!

  • Place the foil packets of wings on a preheated 350-degree grill and close the lid.
  • Let the wings cook for 10 minutes then flip the packets over to the other side and cook the wings for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Carefully cut open the top of the packet and let the wings cook for an additional 6-8 minutes to let the heat dry the wings up just a bit.

  • Serve with ranch or bleu cheese dressing, celery sticks, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Garnish the dish with chopped Italian parsley or chopped green onions.

To tell the truth my Cajun Chicken Wing Recipe was so good, I didn’t even need a dip!

Recipe FAQ’s

What is Cajun Seasoning?

Cajun Seasoning finds its origin in Louisiana. It’s made of spices that are common in Cajun cuisine. There are many brands available online and at your grocer’s, but it’s easy to make your own and tailor to your specific tastes.

How do you make a Cajun Dry Rub?

Making a Cajun Dry Rub is really easy and adaptable to the seasonings you enjoy. But let’s start with the basics.
Paprika (smoked or sweet), garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, thyme, black pepper, sea salt, brown sugar and a pinch of cayenne pepper for heat.

How do I get the dry rub to stick to the chicken wings?

Using a paper towel to dry off the wings is the secret to getting the rub to adhere to the wings. Make sure they are patted dry before adding the spice rub to ensure the rub adheres to the wings.
