Description
This recipe makes perfectly crispy chicken wings in the oven. Adjust the heat by using your favorite hot sauce.
Ingredients
2 lbs dry chicken wings (see note)
salt
1 cup flour
3 Tablespoons Hot Sauce (Franks, Tobasco, other)
1 1/2 Tablespoon Butter
1 Tablespoon minced celery leaves and stalk for the innermost core of celery
1/2 cup your favorite blue cheese dip
Instructions
Sprinkle the wings with salt and leave uncovered for a couple of hours
Preheat the oven to 500 F.
In a mixing bowl, toss the wings with flour. Place the wings in a sieve and shake off the excess flour. You may need to do this in a couple of batches depending on how big your sieve is.
Spray a sheet pan with cooking spay. Place the wings on the sheet pan. Lightly spray them with cooking spray too. Place the pan in the oven.
Bake for 15 minutes and then spin the sheet pan. Bake for another 15 minutes or longer until nice and crispy. If your oven is not convection and is going real slow, you may want to remove the pan (close the oven fast), flip the wings over, and place back in the oven.
While the wings are baking, add the hot sauce and butter to a microwave safe mixing bowl, and heat the sauce. When the wings come out of the oven, immediately toss them with the buttery hotsauce.
Transfer these wings to a plate, sprinkle with the minced celery leaves (the tender green/yellow ones from the heart of the celery) and serve with your favorite blue cheese dressing.
Enjoy!
