Wings and Dressing
Method
Preparation and Cooking
Prepare the Wings
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, toss the wings with salt and black pepper to taste.
Bake the Wings
Place the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning halfway through, until the wings are crispy and golden.
Make the Sauce
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, stir in the hot sauce until combined. Remove from heat.
Coat the Wings
Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large bowl and pour the hot sauce mixture over them. Toss to coat evenly.
Prepare the Bleu Cheese Dressing
In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, buttermilk, blue cheese crumbles, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Prepare the Vegetables
Wash and cut the celery into sticks and slice the carrots into sticks or rounds.
Serve
Serve the wings hot or mild with celery sticks, carrot sticks, and homemade bleu cheese dressing on the side.
