Method
Preparing the Wings
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
Prepare the Chicken Wings
In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings with baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss until the wings are evenly coated.
Arrange on the Rack
Place the seasoned wings on the wire rack in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching each other.
Bake the Wings
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Making the Buffalo Sauce
Melt the Butter
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter completely.
Combine Ingredients
Once melted, remove from heat and whisk in the hot sauce, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and vinegar until well combined.
Making the Ranch Dressing
Mix Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Chill the Dressing
Cover and refrigerate the ranch dressing for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serving
Toss the Wings
Once the wings are cooked, toss them in the buffalo sauce until evenly coated.
Serve with Dipping Sauces
Serve the wings hot with a side of ranch dressing and extra buffalo sauce for dipping.
