Anthony’s Coal Fired Wings are the perfect baked chicken wing to make for an appetizer or light meal.
Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza does it right with these wings. The first time I had them, I knew I wanted to recreate them at home so I could enjoy them whenever I had the craving. They are roasted in an extremely hot pizza oven, so they have little bits of char on them. Delicious!
I cannot go to Anthony’s without ordering these wings. The first time I had them, I couldn’t get over how delicious they were and yet so simple. What sets them apart is they are not deep-fried or coated in sauce, which makes me feel a little less guilty when I eat them.
Roasting in a hot oven instead of deep-frying, as with regular wings, is what sold me. They are so full of flavor and the skin is incredibly crispy, making these wings a certain crowd-pleaser.
In addition to the crispy outside, a simple marinade with garlic, rosemary, parsley, and lemon juice gives deep flavor to the inside. These wings do require a 24-hour marinade, but the wait is worth it.
These crispy baked wings are topped with a generous amount of sweet caramelized onions and fresh parsley. It’s a finishing touch that makes them extraordinary.
I really love chicken wings and these are without question my absolute favorite. Most of us aren’t fortunate enough to own a pizza oven. To recreate that smoky char, your oven must be as hot as possible.

Anthony's Coal Fired Wings
Ingredients
The Wings
- 2 1/2 pounds chicken wings approximately 2 dozen
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 6 cloves garlic smashed
- 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
- 1/4 cup parsley chopped (reserve 2 tablespoons for garnish)
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
Caramelized Onions and Chopped Parsley for Garnish
- 2 cups yellow onion thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Make the Marinade: Place chicken wings in a gallon sized zip top bag. Combine all ingredients, except the wings, in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Pour marinade into bag and toss to coat. Refrigerate for 24 hours, turning once to make sure the wings are evenly coated with marinade.
- Make the Caramelized Onions: In a medium sauté pan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, salt and pepper. Cook over medium/medium-low heat for 30 minutes, or until onions are deep golden brown. Set aside to cool Make the Wings: Preheat oven to 500°F. Remove wings from marinade and place in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes, flip over and return to oven for an additional 10 minutes. Remove from oven, top with caramelized onions and a sprinkle of chopped parsley.

Love these, really tastes like Anthony’s.

Can you freeze these once cooked and add carmelized onions later?
Stephanie Manley
Sure, I don’t see why not.

We made these last weekend and they are SO good. I followed the recipe exactly but they did come out tasting a little salty. We used the oven and cooked them for probably around 30 minutes to get to our chosen doneness. I think I may give them a bit of a flame kiss on the grill the next time we make these to enhance that char flavor.
Cristina
I have never left a comment on a recipe or online… i just search make and move on… but this… this recipe is by far the BEST recipe I have found… I made these and they were better than Anthony’s! It’s quickly being added to a weekly rotation!!

These were perfection! I baked 2 trays on parchment paper at 450 degrees for 30 minutes.
Switched the trays halfway through. Already thinking of other ways to use marinade…boneless chicken thighs? Thank you for the recipe!

Absolutely delicious! These wings are AMAZING! I have another load marinating right now for dinner tonight! Super easy to make! The only changes I made was that I caramelize the onions while the wings are in the oven and I bake the wings longer, so they’re well done. I can’t wait to have them again tonight!

If I have a pizza oven that goes to 700 how would that change the cooking time?
Stephanie
Do you want to cook them super quickly? Not sure why you would want to adjust the temperature.

Because you say, “They are roasted in an extremely hot pizza oven, so they have little bits of char on them. Delicious!”

Amazing, whole family loved them!
Marianne
These wings were delicious, and tasted so much like Anthony’s wings! After I baked them I put them on the grill to get charred. My family LOVED them and couldn’t believe how authentic they tasted! Thank you!!!
JB
Made these wings on the grill. Great copy cat recipe! My family loves them.
Walt
Wings were spot on, but your nutritional info has to be way off. No way there are 42 grams of carbs in this recipe. 1 whole onion has 10g and wings have 0.
marie OConnell
These wings are very tasty but there is no going around something about the way they are cooked makes a difference. Missing that wood-fired taste.
Stephanie
Thank you for your comment.
Danielle
OMG these taste IDENTICAL! Thank you sooo much! Only thing I would suggest as I had no idea since this is my first time but advising to break the joint out. (I’ve never shopped for wings before this). I threw mine on the grill after because I’m a picky one but when husband doesn’t think other things are possible unless you go to a restaurant, thank you because you nailed it !!!
MARILYN CHESNICK
CAN I USE THIS RECIPE FOR OTHER CHICKEN PIECES? TEMP? HOW LONG TO BAKE?
Stephanie
You could, but you would need to add quite a bit more time, maybe another 30 minutes to the cooking time.
Cheryl
They were absolutely divine!!!
Jenni
These sound so good! And how easy! A swim in marinade and then into the oven. Finger licking. 🙂
