Crispy Buffalo Wings Recipe

These wings are baked to crispy perfection and then tossed in a tangy buffalo sauce.

Ingredients:

  • 4 lbs chicken wings, separated at the joint (drumettes and flats)
  • 5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup hot sauce (好みの辛さのホットソース (yori docchi no karasa no hotto sosu)) – adjust for your desired spice level
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar

Cooking Guide:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This helps the baking powder adhere and crisp up the skin.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the wings with baking powder, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Make sure they are evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece for air circulation. Skin side should be facing up.
  5. Bake for 30 minutes. Then, flip the wings and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  6. While the wings are baking, prepare the buffalo sauce. In a saucepan over low heat, whisk together hot sauce, melted butter, and brown sugar. Let it simmer for a few minutes until the sugar dissolves and the sauce is well combined.
  7. Once the wings are cooked through and crispy, remove them from the oven and toss them immediately in the buffalo sauce. You can use tongs to coat them evenly.
  8. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces like ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing.

Tips:

  • For extra crispy wings, bake them at a lower temperature (around 375°F (190°C)) for a longer time (around 45-50 minutes).
  • Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet. This will prevent the wings from crisping up properly.
  • You can adjust the spice level of the buffalo sauce to your preference. Add more or less hot sauce depending on how hot you like it.
  • Leftover wings can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the oven or air fryer until crispy again.
  • For a smoky flavor, you can add a teaspoon of smoked paprika to the dry rub.
