Ingredients

• 2 lb Chicken wings
• 2 tbsp Baking powder (aluminum-free)
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Paprika
• 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup Hot sauce (e.g., Frank's RedHot)
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 1 tbsp Optional: chopped parsley
• 0 Optional: ranch or blue cheese dressing

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the rack with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

Pat the chicken wings thoroughly dry with paper towels. This helps to achieve crispy skin during baking.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss the chicken wings in the mixture to coat them evenly.

Step 4

Arrange the wings on the prepared wire rack in a single layer, making sure they’re not touching each other for even cooking.

Step 5

Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Flip the wings over and bake for an additional 25 minutes until they are crispy and golden brown.

Step 6

While the wings bake, prepare the buffalo sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Stir in the hot sauce and honey until well combined. Remove from heat.

Step 7

Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over the wings and gently toss to coat them evenly.

Step 8

Serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley if desired. Pair with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping and enjoy!
