BAKED BUFFALO WINGS
These easy to make hot wings are crispy without being fried. Always yummy to snack on. They only take 10 minutes for prep, but need to be refrigerated for about an hour so the flour coating is firm. You can add more cayenne or use a higher hot sauce to butter ratio if you like them spicier! Enjoy.

It doesn't really matter, because these juicy, crunchy wings will be the true game night stars no matter what!

HEALTHIER BOILED AND BROILED BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGS
This recipe is a combination of several different methods that I have used over the years trying to lighten up wings and still keep them crispy while finishing in the oven. It takes a little prep time and has a few extra steps but once you see the crispy non-greasy (well a little less greasy than fried) wings that result, I think you will be pleased. This recipe can be adjusted up or down depending on how many wings you need to prepare. Don't forget the celery, blue cheese, and carrots to serve alongside.

Steps:
- Place a large stock pot filled about 3/4 way full with water over high heat, cover and bring to a boil.
- Remove the tips of the wings and discard or save/freeze for making chicken stock. Using kitchen shears or knife to separate the wings at the joint.
- Add chicken and other ingredients except the flour to boiling water. Return to boil and cook 15 minutes with top partially covering stock pot. Adjust temperature as necessary to prevent boil overs.
- While chicken boils combine ingredients for your sauce in a small pan over low to medium low heat stirring often. (Adjust flavorings as you like or you can always use your favorite bottled buffalo wing sauce.) Once sauce is warm you can turn to low or off if you prefer. It will easily reheat when the wings are ready.
- Drain wings in colander shaking to remove excess water. Let sit for a few minutes or pat dry with a towel. They need to cool a little before placing in a plastic bag with flour and spices.
- While wings dry and their temperature cools combine flour and other spices in plastic bag.
- Add wings to mixture and shake to mix to add a light coating of flour. I have found that the flour helps add crispiness and gives the sauce something to soak into. Note it doesn't have to look like fried chicken coating, just a dusting. Now open plastic bag and pour in about a 1/4 cup of your sauce that has cooled down. Shake bag again to evenly coat.
- Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Arrange chicken wings on pan and let sit in refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour to allow flour to adhere to chicken.
- Set oven to broil on HIGH.
- Remove wings replace aluminum foil lining on sheet pain and transfer wings to the clean sheet of foil. This helps prevent any burning smells while broiling.
- Place wings in oven on middle rack and broil on HIGH for about 20-30 minutes per side for a total of an hour. Just keep an eye on them and you will know they are ready when they turn golden brown.
- Pour desired amount of sauce in a large bowl and add chicken wings to coat in sauce and serve while still warm with blue cheese dressing, carrots, and celery.

BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGS WITH BLUE CHEESE DRESSING
This is an iconic dish. It's Americana. It never gets old. No matter how much you make, there is rarely much leftover. There is no game day without these types of wings. The important thing for me is the fresh and powdered garlic combination in the dressing. You definitely need both. Make the dressing the night before for even better flavors. I like to serve this with sliced cucumbers, carrots and whole romaine spears to dunk in the dressing. I often double this dressing recipe, too, because you need more than you think...

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Make the dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise and buttermilk with the blue cheese, minced garlic, Worcestershire, the 1 tablespoon vinegar, hot sauce, garlic powder and a generous pinch of salt. Taste for seasoning. Add more vinegar if it needs additional acidity. Add more salt, if necessary. Add a splash of water, if necessary, to loosen the dressing or if the flavors are too intense. Set aside.
- Make the Buffalo sauce: Melt the butter with the garlic in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the hot sauce. Keep warm.
- Prepare the wings: Pour the oil into a deep, heavy-bottomed pot. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F over medium heat. Prepare 2 rimmed baking sheets, one lined with a wire rack. In a large bowl, combine the flour and cornstarch. Separate the larger wings from the smaller ones. Season all of them with salt and toss in the flour mix. Shake off the excess.
- Fry the wings: Lower half of the larger wings into the oil and gently "swirl" the oil with a slotted spoon as they fry. This swirling will assure the wings fry more evenly on all sides. When they are light to medium brown, 5 to 7 minutes, remove them with the slotted spoon and lay them out on the wire rack. Season with salt. Cook the rest of the wings in batches, keeping the fried wings warm on the second baking sheet in the oven until all are cooked. Leave the wings in the oven for at least 10 minutes to assure all are cooked through.
- Toss the wings in a large bowl with all of the Buffalo sauce. Serve on a large platter with the blue cheese dressing and vegetables on the side.
