There is a specific kind of satisfaction in taking a humble cut of meat and turning it into a meal that feels like a feast. That is exactly what Smothered Turkey Wings represent to me. While I enjoy preparing them in various ways, baking them remains my favorite method. It’s a method that rewards you with incredible flavor for very little effort.

You only need a few basic pantry staples and a little bit of time in the oven to achieve that fall-off-the-bone texture. They’re the perfect soulful option for anyone looking to serve a hearty dinner. I will show you how to transform these simple wings into a gravy smothered masterpiece that your family will crave.

Instructions for Southern Turkey Wings

1. Seasoning the Turkey Wings

Before beginning, make sure to preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Make sure to thoroughly wash and dry your wings. Then season the wings with the onion powder, garlic powder, Creole seasoning and black pepper.

2. Making the Gravy

In a separate bowl, combine the chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and cream of mushroom soup. Whisk all ingredients until well combined.

3. Baking the Wings

Place the wings in a baking dish then pour the soup mixture over the wings. Then, cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and transfer them to the preheated oven to bake for 1 hour and 45 minutes.

After they have cooked for 1 hour 45 minutes, remove the foil then return your baking dish to the oven and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until the wings are browned and cooked through.

How to Serve Turkey Wings

Wings can be served with a variety of sides. Some popular options include Mashed potatoes, Gravy, Rice, Roasted vegetables, Mac and cheese and Cornbread.

Smothered wings are a great comfort food dish that can be enjoyed any day of the week.
