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.

EASY BAKED BUFFALO WINGS



Easy Baked Buffalo Wings image

Crispy, hot wings without the hassle of deep-frying or the lengthy marinating process. Though I live a mere hour's drive north of the city from which buffalo wings originated, I can't find a place that makes decent wings! This recipe is a combination of a wing recipe from Better Homes and Gardens cookbook and the sauce we always used at home. I don't claim credit for it by any means, but I think it should be posted, because it's awesome!

Provided by Isabeau

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 24 wings, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 lbs chicken wings
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup Frank's red hot sauce

Steps:

  • Cut off wing tips; discard. Separate wings at joint.
  • Place wings in a single layer on a wire rack inside a shallow pan (to catch grease). (You can use a broiler pan, but the super thin bars of the wire rack keep the meat from sticking).
  • Broil 4 to 5 inches from heat for 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Use the stove fan if you have one; the grease from the meat makes a lot of smoke.
  • Turn. Broil another 10 to 15 minutes or until meat is no longer pink.
  • Meanwhile, microwave butter in large, microwave-safe bowl.
  • Add hot sauce.
  • Add wings to bowl and cover. Shake until wings are well coated.
  • Serve hot with celery ribs, carrot sticks, and blue cheese dressing, if desired.

2 dozen chicken wings (tips removed, cut into drumsticks and flats )

2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons pepper
1 cup Frank's Hot Sauce
1/3 cup habanero-based hot sauce ((optional, or use more Frank's))
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Combine all the wing spices in a bowl.
  • Pat the chicken wings dry and sprinkle the spice mixture all over the wings and toss to coat completely with spices. Arrange the wings on the racks and transfer to the oven for 45-55 minutes, flipping once midway through cooking.
  • Combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a saucepan and place over medium heat until melted, stirring to incorporate all the ingredients. Transfer to a large bowl, reserving 1/3 cup of the sauce for serving.

SIMPLE BAKED BUFFALO WINGS



Simple Baked Buffalo Wings image

I dislike fried food, but I love Buffalo wings! So instead of frying, I've been perfecting a technique for baking them that yields terrific results without the mess and greasiness of frying. We love Buffalo wings for dinner--it works well for thighs or drumsticks as well as wings. The cooking time as directed will work for wings, thighs, or drumsticks, but may need to be adjusted for larger pieces.

celery rib

  • Heat oven to 350* F.
  • Combine butter and hot sauce in a small sauce pan. Heat over medium-low heat until butter is melted. Stir to combine.

BAKED BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGS

Sticky spiced wings make great finger food or canapés, and this version skips the deep-fried stage so they're healthier

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Canapes

Time 1h10m

Yield Serves 12 as a canapé

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp cider vinegar
1 tbsp paprika
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp celery salt
4 tbsp pepper sauce (we used Frank's hot sauce)
3 tbsp honey
1 ½kg chicken wings, halved at the joint

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together the garlic, olive oil, cider vinegar, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, celery salt, hot sauce, honey and a couple of cracks of black pepper. Add the chicken wings and toss around to make sure they're fully covered in the marinade. If you have time, leave the wings to marinate for a couple of hrs in the fridge or ideally overnight.
  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Drain and reserve the marinade, then spread the wings out on a very large baking tray. Bake for 30 mins, then pour off the excess oil, add the reserved marinade and toss well. Increase oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Return to the oven and cook for a further 30 mins, tossing a few times to coat in the glaze as they cook. They should be sticky and glazed with most of the marinade evaporated. Serve on a large platter alongside other party snacks.

Tips:

  • To ensure crispy wings, pat them dry with paper towels before tossing them in the coating mixture.
  • Use a large baking sheet to prevent overcrowding and ensure even cooking.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet, or the wings will steam instead of crisp up.
  • For extra crispy wings, bake them for an additional 5-10 minutes.
  • Serve the wings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as blue cheese or ranch dressing.

Conclusion:

These easy baked buffalo wings are the perfect appetizer or game day snack. They're crispy, flavorful, and sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy delicious buffalo wings right at home.
