Wings

Method

Preparing the Wings

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken Wings

    In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings with salt, black pepper, and baking powder. Toss the wings until they are evenly coated.

Baking the Wings

  1. 3

    Arrange the Wings

    Place the wings in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a wire rack.

  2. 4

    Bake the Wings

    Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they are crispy and golden brown.

Making the Sauce

  1. 5

    Prepare the Hot Sauce

    In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the hot sauce, garlic powder, honey, and cayenne pepper. Stir well until combined.

  2. 6

    Simmer the Sauce

    Let the sauce simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.

Coating the Wings

  1. 7

    Toss the Wings

    Once the wings are baked, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the hot sauce over the wings and toss until they are well coated.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Serve the hot wings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce and celery sticks.
