Bake Buffalo Wings

Cool down spicy buffalo wings with a dipping sauce.


Buffalo chicken wings have a spicy hot exterior flavor, and the meat remains juicy and flavorful on the inside. While Buffalo wings are usually deep-fried, baking them in the oven reduces the extra fat and calories. Once you finish baking the wings, toss them into a homemade buffalo sauce for a quick snack, appetizer or meal. Serve the wings with a side of blue cheese dressing and celery.


Instructions


1. Heat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.


2. Toss the separated wings in a bowl with 1 tbsp. of vegetable oil.


3. Place the wings into a plastic storage bag. Add 1 cup of all-purpose flour. Seal the bag and shake to coat the wings.


4. Remove the wings from the plastic bag. Shake the excess flour off the wings.


5. Cover a baking pan with aluminum foil. Spread the wings onto the foil and avoid crowding them.


6. Bake the chicken wings for 20 minutes. Turn the wings over with tongs and bake for another 20 minutes. Cook the wings until they reach an internal temperature of 165 F and the exterior looks golden brown.


7. Combine 1 1/2 tbsp. of white vinegar with 1/4 tsp. of cayenne pepper in a saucepan. Add 1/8 tsp. of garlic powder, 1/4 tsp. Worcestershire sauce, and 6 tbsp. hot sauce. Heat the ingredients over low heat until they come to a simmer. Stir the sauce occasionally and remove it from the heat.


8. Remove the cooked wings from the oven. Transfer the wings to a clean bowl. Pour the sauce over the wings and toss them with a spatula to coat them. Serve the wings immediately.
