Ingredients

  • 12 whole chicken wings
  • 3 ounces unsalted butter
  • 1 small clove garlic, minced
  • ¼ cup hot sauce (such as Frank’s Original Red Hot Sauce)
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Prepare the Wings:
    • Cut the chicken wings in half to separate the drumettes from the wingettes.
    • Pat the wings dry with a paper towel.
  3. Season the Wings:
    • In a large mixing bowl, combine baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.
    • Toss the chicken wings in the dry seasoning until well-coated.
  4. Bake to Crispy Perfection:
    • Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack over it.
    • Arrange the seasoned wings in a single layer on the wire rack.
    • Bake in the center of the oven for 50 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  5. Make the Buffalo Sauce:
    • In a medium bowl, melt the unsalted butter.
    • Stir in the hot sauce until well combined.
  6. Toss the Wings in Sauce:
    • Transfer the baked wings to a bowl.
    • Drizzle the buffalo sauce over the wings and toss to coat evenly.
  7. Serve Immediately:
    • Serve your crispy buffalo wings with celery sticks and your favorite dipping sauce (blue cheese or ranch).

Cook’s Note

  • Alternative Ingredients:
    • Swap out hot sauce brands or adjust the spiciness level to your liking.
    • For a milder version, reduce the amount of hot sauce.
