Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup hot sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon honey
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet.
Step 2
In a large bowl, pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Step 3
Combine salt, pepper, and baking powder in a small bowl. Sprinkle the mixture over the chicken wings and toss until wings are evenly coated.
Step 4
Arrange the chicken wings in a single layer on the wire rack, ensuring they don't touch each other.
Step 5
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip them over and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 6
While the wings are baking, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
Step 7
Stir in the hot sauce, garlic powder, and honey, then remove from heat and set aside.
Step 8
Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the prepared buffalo sauce over the wings and toss to coat them thoroughly.
Step 9
Serve the buffalo wings immediately with celery sticks and blue cheese or ranch dressing on the side, if desired.
