Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Wings

  1. Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure they crisp up properly.

  2. Season the wings with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss to coat evenly.

  3. For Baking : Sprinkle baking powder over the wings and toss again. Arrange the wings on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet (this allows air circulation for crispier results).
  4. For Frying : Heat olive oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2: Cook the Wings

  1. Baking Method : Bake the wings at 425°F (220°C) for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  2. Frying Method : Fry the wings in batches for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until fully cooked and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

Step 3: Make the Buffalo Sauce

  1. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
  2. Add the hot sauce, honey (if using), Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Stir well and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 4: Coat the Wings

  1. Place the cooked wings in a large bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over the wings and toss gently to coat evenly.

Step 5: Serve

  1. Let the wings rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  2. Arrange on a platter with celery sticks, carrot sticks, and your choice of dipping sauce.
