BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGS


This extremely popular creation came out of a New York restaurant in the 60’s by Teressa Bellissimo, who covered them in her own special sauce and served them with a side of celery and blue cheese. Since then, Buffalo wings have become the quintessential game day food in the United States served at bars, restaurants or ordered as take out.


Of COURSE this recipe includes serving them in a Blue Cheese Dressing (or Ranch dressing).


These wings were not only a hit at the dinner table, they were ordered again the next day! Just when I thought this little experiment wouldn’t be well received!

HOW TO MAKE CRISPY CHICKEN WINGS


The magic ingredient to crispy wings without a lot of oil is aluminium free baking powder. It may sounds unappealing, but coating chicken wings in seasoned baking powder is what makes the skin super crispy. You won’t taste it in the end results, so long as you use aluminium-free. To be clear, make sure you use baking powder, NOT baking soda, because there is a big difference!


You’re going to pimp yours up with added flavours:



  • Garlic powder

  • Salt

  • Pepper

  • You an also add a dash of Cayenne pepper.


Toss them until they are coated evenly.

HOW DO YOU COOK CHICKEN WINGS IN THE OVEN


After your chicken wings are coated, place aluminium foil on your baking sheet to catch any drippings, then arrange a wire rack over the top. Place your wings in an even layer to allow the heat to be evenly distributed.


You’re then going to bake your chicken wings on a rack so the fat can drip off, creating ultra crispy wings all over.


HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO BAKE CHICKEN WINGS?


Chicken wings can take about 50 minutes or more to bake, flipping them halfway through cooking time to allow even crispness. Why so long? To allow the fat to render out from the chicken wings so that the skin crisps to a delicious golden brown.

HOW TO MAKE BUFFALO SAUCE


To get the best baked buffalo wings, you’re going to toss them in an incredible buffalo sauce, with just three ingredients!



  • Frank’s Original Red Hot Sauce

  • Melted unsalted butter

  • Honey or sugar (white or brown)


Whisk it all together until combined, then pour the sauce ALL over your CRISPY baked wings and serve! So easy and no deep fryers or entire kitchens to clean up afterwards.


SERVE BUFFALO WINGS


Serve your buffalo wings with blue cheese dip, ranch dipping sauce or a creamy garlic mayo. Don’t forget the celery and/or carrot sticks on the side! Game day has never looked so easy and so good!


To serve wings as a family meal, we normally keep some separate without sauce so the kids can enjoy super crispy chicken wings. You can also dip theirs in bbq sauce or honey garlic butter sauce. A win-win!

Ingredients

CHICKEN WINGS

  • 2 Kg (4 pounds) chicken wings cut into drumettes and flats
  • 1 tablespoon aluminium free baking powder (NOT baking soda)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • Pinch of cracked pepper

BUFFALO SAUCE:

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup Frank's Original Red Hot Sauce
  • 1-2 tablespoons honey, white sugar or brown sugar (adjust to suit your tastes)

BLUE CHEESE DIP:

  • 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese softened
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of cracked black pepper

TO SERVE:

  • Ranch dressing
  • Blue cheese dressing (RECIPE AS ABOVE) for serving
  • Celery sticks for serving

Instructions

  • Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminium foil and set a heat-proof wire rack inside. 
  • Pat dry chicken wings liberally with paper towels, squeezing out as much moisture as you can. Transfer them to a large bowl.
  • In a small bowl, combine the baking powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper together, whisking well to combine, and sprinkle the mixture over the wings. Toss wings through the baking powder mixture until evenly coated. 
  • Arrange on rack, leaving about 1-inch of space between each wing.
  • Bake for 30 minutes; flip and continue to cook until crisp and golden brown, (about 20-30 minutes longer), until golden browned and crispy.
  • While wings are cooking, whisk together hot sauce, butter and sugar. Toss wings through the sauce to evenly coat.
  • Serve wings immediately with blue cheese dressing or ranch dressing, and celery sticks.


Notes

For crispier wings, follow steps 1-4. Then refrigerate wings uncovered overnight. This ensures they are thoroughly dried out.

I tried both methods, and only noticed a slightly crispier texture in the refrigerated wings!
