If you need an easy appetizer, these Baked Buffalo Wings are your solution! These chicken wings are my go-to appetizer whenever I need to feed a crowd. Super Bowl Sunday is fast approaching, and I am putting together my menu to get ready for the party. Honestly, I only like the Super Bowl for the commercials, good food, and the Half Time Show.
Recipe Ingredient Notes
To make these baked buffalo wings, you need the following ingredients:
- ¾ cup flour
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 20 chicken wings
- ½ cup butter melted
- ½ cup red hot sauce we use Frank’s red hot sauce
How to make these tasty Baked Buffalo Wings:
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease with cooking spray. Place the flour, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and salt into a resealable plastic bag and shake to mix.
Make sure your chicken wings are completely dry (I dried mine off with a paper towel) and add the chicken wings to the bag. Seal the bag and toss until well coated with the flour mixture.
Place the wings onto the prepared baking sheet and place into the refrigerator. Refrigerate at least 1 hour (this will make your wings not “soggy”. If I am in a hurry, I will stick them in the freezer for about 20 minutes).
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Whisk together the melted butter and hot sauce in a small bowl. Dip the wings into the butter mixture, and place back on the baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and crispy on the outside, about 45 minutes. Turn the wings over halfway during cooking so they cook evenly.
Serve with your favorite dips (we love ranch dressing) or eat plain- they are delicious either way!
