Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds chicken wings
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup buffalo wing sauce
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
- ranch or blue cheese dressing (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure they cook evenly and crisp up properly.
In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with olive oil, Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Place the seasoned wings in the crock pot and cover with the lid.
Cook on high for 2 hours, then reduce the heat to low and cook for an additional 2 hours (or cook on low for 6 hours total if you prefer a slower method).
Once the wings are tender and cooked through, preheat your oven broiler to high.
Transfer the cooked wings to a lined baking sheet and set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the buffalo wing sauce and melted butter. Heat over medium-low until warmed through, stirring occasionally.
Brush the wings generously with the buffalo sauce mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.
Broil the wings in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until they begin to caramelize and develop a slight char. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
Remove from the oven and brush with an additional layer of buffalo sauce, if desired.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side.
