Crispy Buffalo Chicken Wings
Perfectly seasoned, crispy buffalo wings tossed in a sweet and spicy buttery buffalo sauce
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1.5 kg chicken wings
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika Optional
- 1/2 cup hot sauce Franks Redhot
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp honey or brown sugar
- 1 tbsp white vinegar or lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp worcestershire sauce Optional
- vegetable oil or cooking spray
Instructions
- Pat the wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture – this helps them crisp up better.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Add the wings and toss until they are fully coated. Shake off any excess flour mixture.
- Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F). Place the wings on a wire rack set over a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly spray with cooking oil. Bake for 35-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden.–
- While the wings are cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the hot sauce, honey, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce (if using). Simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is well combined and slightly thickened
- Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over the wings and toss to coat evenly. Serve immediately, garnished with celery sticks and your favourite dipping sauce, like ranch or blue cheese.
