BAKED HOT WINGS



Baked Hot Wings image

I threw this together for my mom who is on atkins and is always looking for recipes that are easy, flavorful and allow her to stay on her diet. She loved these, hope you do to.

Provided by Julie Tremmel

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs chicken drummettes
1/4 cup butter, melted
6 ounces franks buffalo wing sauce
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/8 teaspoon cayenne, ground
1/8 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Spray a disposable aluminum cookie sheet that has 1/2 - 1 inch sides with non-stick spray; set aside.
  • Combine all above ingredients except chicken to make hot sauce marinade and blend well.
  • Dip chicken pieces in hot wing sauce and coat evenly. Place chicken pieces in an even layer on disposable cookie sheet. Pour remaining hot sauce evenly over chicken pieces.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour until chicken is cooked through and chicken skin is crispy.
  • Serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping. Enjoy.

Tips:

  • To achieve a crispy texture, double fry the wings: fry them at a lower temperature for a longer time, then increase the heat and fry them again for a shorter period.
  • Use a flavorful marinade to infuse the wings with taste. The recipe suggests a mixture of garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil, but you can experiment with different combinations to suit your preference.
  • For extra crispy skin, coat the wings in a mixture of cornstarch and baking powder before frying. This will help absorb moisture and create a crunchy texture.
  • Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the wings. If the oil is not hot enough, the wings will absorb too much oil and become greasy.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the wings. This will cause the temperature of the oil to drop, resulting in soggy wings.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the wings are cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). This will ensure that they are safe to eat and have a juicy texture.
  • Serve the wings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, and honey mustard.

Conclusion:

Larry's Caldwell Cafe Hot Wings are a delicious and crowd-pleasing appetizer or main course. With their crispy texture, flavorful marinade, and variety of dipping sauce options, these wings are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So gather your ingredients, fire up your fryer, and get ready to enjoy these amazing hot wings!
