Baking the wings ensures that irresistible crunch, and they’re surprisingly easy to make! Serve them with blue cheese or ranch dressing for dipping. Bring on the wings!

What You Need

  • Chicken wings
  • Buffalo sauce (I use Frank’s Redhot sauce)
  • Butter
  • Worcestershire sauce (optional)
  • Garlic powder

Helpful Tips

  • Pat the wings dry: Use paper towels to remove excess moisture from the wings before baking. This step is essential for achieving a crispy skin in the oven.
  • Use a wire rack: Place the wings on a wire rack set over a baking sheet to allow air to circulate underneath. This helps them cook evenly and get extra crispy.
  • Toss in sauce after baking: For the perfect texture, bake the wings until crispy, then toss them in warm buffalo sauce right before serving to keep them from getting soggy.
