Steps:
- 1. Position an oven rack 6 inches from the broiler. Line a rimmed 17- by 12-inch baking sheet with foil, pour ¼ cup water into the pan, and fit with a wire rack. 2. Toss the wings with the oil, 1 ½ teaspoons salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Arrange in a single layer on the rack. Prick the chicken skin with the tip of a knife. Broil until cooked through and browned, about 20 minutes, turning once. 3. While the chicken cooks, mix the hot pepper sauce, vinegar, maple syrup, and butter in a large, deep skillet. Bring to a boil, stirring, then simmer over medium-low heat until thickened slightly, about 3 minutes. Add the hot wings and turn until well-coated. Serve immediately with the celery sticks and blue cheese dip.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper and garlic powder. In a large bowl, toss the wings with the salt mixture to evenly coat.
- Preheat a gas grill to medium heat (about 350 degrees F).
- Place the wings on the grill, crowding them together so that they are all touching (this goes against the conventional wisdom of giving meat room so it doesn't steam; you want them to steam so that they stay moist). Grill, flipping the wings every 5 minutes, for a total of 20 minutes of cooking.
- In the meantime, heat the butter, hot sauce, vinegar and honey in a saucepan over low heat and whisk to combine.
- In a clean large bowl, toss the wings with the sauce. Turn the heat up on the grill to medium high. Use tongs to remove the wings from the sauce and put them back on the grill until the skins crisp, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Put the wings back in the bowl with the sauce, toss and serve.
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.
Tips:
- To ensure crispy wings, pat them dry with paper towels before tossing them in sauce.
- For a more flavorful coating, mix the sauce ingredients in a bowl before tossing the wings.
- If you prefer a spicier wing, add more cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the sauce.
- Bake the wings at a high temperature for a shorter amount of time to achieve crispy skin and juicy meat.
- Serve the wings with your favorite dipping sauce, such as blue cheese dressing, ranch dressing, or honey mustard.
Conclusion:
This recipe for low-fat broiled buffalo chicken wings is a healthier alternative to traditional fried wings, without compromising on flavor. By baking the wings instead of frying them, you can reduce the fat and calorie content significantly. The wings are coated in a flavorful buffalo sauce made with hot sauce, butter, and spices, and then baked until crispy.
