Prep time: 55 minutes
Cook time: 15-18 minutes
Yield: 4 servings
Serving size: 5 wings
Ingredients
- 20 chicken wings
- ½ cup flour
- ½ cup hot sauce (I used Frank's® Red Hot Sauce)
- ¼ tsp paprika
- ½ tsp red cayenne pepper
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 ½ Tbsp light butter
- ½ Tbsp minced garlic
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt. Toss chicken wings in flour mixture a few at a time. Shake off extra and place on baking sheet.
- Refrigerate for 45 minutes, uncovered.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or line with parchment paper for easy clean up.
- Bake wings in preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and juices run clear, about 15-18 minutes per side.
- Meanwhile, in a medium sauce pan, combine butter, hot sauce, pepper, and garlic and cook over low heat. Cook and stir until butter is melted and mixture is well blended, about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove chicken wings from oven and place wings in serving bowl. Pour hot sauce mixture over the chicken wings evenly, and mix well.
