Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and dry the chicken wings with paper towels.
  2. Combine pineapple juice, brown sugar, chopped jalapeños, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, soy sauce, and black pepper in a mixing bowl.
  3. Marinate the chicken wings in the prepared marinade for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  4. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, place a greased wire rack on top, and arrange the marinated wings in a single layer.
  5. Bake the wings for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden-brown and crispy, brushing with reserved marinade halfway.
