Ingredients

6 turkey wings about 2 lbs
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup water
Optional: fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the slow cooker by lightly coating it with cooking spray.
Brush the turkey wings with olive oil and set them aside.
In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, paprika, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
Rub the seasoning mixture over each side of the turkey wings.
Transfer the seasoned turkey wings into the prepared slow cooker.
Pour 1 cup of water into the bottom of the slow cooker.
Cover and cook the turkey wings on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the meat is tender and cooked through.
Optionally, for crispy skin, transfer the cooked turkey wings to a baking sheet and place them under the broiler for a few minutes until the skin is golden brown and crispy.
Serve the slow cooker turkey wings on a serving platter, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Marinate the turkey wings: Once the turkey wings are coated in the seasoning, store them in the refrigerator for a few hours until you are ready to cook. This will help to impart more flavor.

Check with a thermometer: If you’re not sure how to make turkey wings, treat them like chicken. All poultry must be cooked to 165 degrees F.

Let them cook: It may be tempting to check on the turkey wings and move them around. There’s no need to flip them during the cooking process. Keeping the lid closed ensures even cooking.
