Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs chicken wings (900 g)
  • 1 cup hot sauce (240 ml) (such as Frank
  • s RedHot)
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (42 g)
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar (30 ml)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder (5 g)
  • 1 tsp onion powder (5 g)
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika (5 g)
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper (2 g) (adjust to taste)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour (60 g)
  • ½ tsp baking powder (2 g)

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together hot sauce, melted butter, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
  2. Add chicken wings to the marinade, tossing to coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top, if available.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix flour and baking powder. Remove wings from marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge wings in the flour mixture until lightly coated.
  5. Arrange wings on the prepared rack. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until wings are cooked through and the skin is crispy (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).
  6. Remove wings from the oven and toss them in any remaining marinade. Serve immediately.
