SPICY HERB BAKED WINGS

• Prep the rub: Pour about an inch of olive oil into a small pan over medium heat. When the oil begins to shimmer, add the rosemary and cook, turning the sprigs, until the leaves darken and become crispy, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Add the sage to the same pan and cook until the leaves darken, slightly curl and stop sizzling, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

• Remove the rosemary leaves from their stems, then put the herbs and spices in a spice grinder and pulse until finely chopped and combined. Remove and add 1 tablespoon salt.
