Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lb Chicken wings
- 2 tbsp Baking powder (aluminum-free)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Hot sauce (e.g., Frank's RedHot)
- 1 tbsp Honey
- 1 tbsp Optional: chopped parsley
- Optional: ranch or blue cheese dressing
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the rack with non-stick cooking spray.
Pat the chicken wings thoroughly dry with paper towels. This helps to achieve crispy skin during baking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss the chicken wings in the mixture to coat them evenly.
Arrange the wings on the prepared wire rack in a single layer, making sure they’re not touching each other for even cooking.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Flip the wings over and bake for an additional 25 minutes until they are crispy and golden brown.
While the wings bake, prepare the buffalo sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Stir in the hot sauce and honey until well combined. Remove from heat.
Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over the wings and gently toss to coat them evenly.
Serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley if desired. Pair with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping and enjoy!
