Bake raw chicken wing drumettes in a preheated oven until the thickest part reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Pat them dry, season, and arrange them in a single layer; spacing helps the skin brown instead of steaming.
Raw chicken wing drumettes often take about 35–45 minutes in a 400°F (200°C) oven, depending on their size and the oven. Use a food thermometer rather than time alone: the thickest part should reach 165°F (74°C), without touching bone.
A raw chicken wing drumette is the meaty, single-bone section attached to the body end of the wing; a drumstick is the lower part of the leg. Drumettes resemble miniature drumsticks, but they come from the wing.
No, do not wash raw chicken wing drumettes. Rinsing can splash bacteria onto the sink, counters, and nearby food; thorough cooking kills them. Pat the meat dry if needed, then wash your hands and clean any surfaces that touched the raw chicken.
Arrange raw chicken wing drumettes in a single layer in the air fryer and cook at about 400°F (200°C), turning them partway through. Appliance and piece sizes vary, so check that the thickest part reaches 165°F (74°C) before serving.
Raw chicken wing drumettes keep for 1–2 days in a refrigerator set at 40°F (4°C) or below. Store them in a sealed container on the lowest shelf to prevent juices from dripping onto other foods; freeze them if you will cook them later.
Yes, raw chicken wing drumettes can be frozen in airtight packaging. Thaw them in the refrigerator, where their juices can be contained; do not thaw them on the counter. Keep thawing chicken separate from ready-to-eat food.
For crisp skin, pat raw chicken wing drumettes thoroughly dry and leave space between pieces on the tray or air-fryer rack. Add a wet sauce near the end of cooking rather than at the start, since moisture can stop the skin from browning well.
Yes, raw chicken wing drumettes can marinate overnight in a covered container in the refrigerator. A spice, garlic, or citrus marinade works well. Never serve marinade that has touched raw chicken unless you first cook it thoroughly.
A raw chicken wing drumette is the thicker, single-bone section nearest the body; a wingette is the flatter middle section with two slender bones. Their shapes affect how they fit on a tray and how evenly they brown.

A raw chicken wing drumette is the meaty, single-bone section of the wing nearest the body, sold with its skin and bone. It is an ingredient rather than a ready-to-eat dish and must be cooked before serving. The meat turns tender and juicy when roasted or grilled, while the skin can crisp; it is also commonly fried or coated in a sauce. In the US, drumettes are a familiar part of a platter of chicken wings, often served with a dip and crisp vegetables. The skin adds fat alongside the protein, so pair them with salad or vegetables for a lighter plate, or remove the skin after cooking. Keep raw chicken separate from ready-to-eat foods and cook it thoroughly.
