Chicken Wings

Method

Preparation of Chicken Wings

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Wings

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

  3. 3

    Arrange on Baking Sheet

    Place the seasoned wings in a single layer on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. This allows air to circulate around the wings for even cooking.

Cooking the Chicken Wings

  1. 4

    Bake the Wings

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

Preparation of Buffalo Sauce

  1. 5

    Make the Sauce

    In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the hot sauce, garlic powder, white vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir to combine and heat until warmed through.

  2. 6

    Adjust Spice Level

    If desired, add cayenne pepper to the sauce for extra heat. Stir well.

Tossing and Serving

  1. 7

    Toss the Wings

    Once the wings are done baking, remove them from the oven and place them in a large bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over the wings and toss until evenly coated.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Serve the wings hot with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing on the side.
