I Baked Buffalo Chicken Wingsknow there are lots and lots of chicken wing recipes on the Net, but most of them, in my opinion, call for way too many ingredients. I’m not a fan of making things from scratch if one jar of sauce will do the trick instead of a dozen or so ingredients. So, following is my recipe for medium hot Buffalo chicken wings, and they are so good!

* I have updated this recipe by adding a ginger-soy glaze to use on half of the wings. Also, I changed the cooking method slightly by tossing the wings with oil, salt and pepper, and placing on a wire rack, so the wings come out more crispy. (2/4/13)


Ingredients:

    Wings:
    2-5 lbs frozen chicken wing flats (25-60 wings)
    2 tablespoons vegetable oil
    1 tablespoon kosher salt
    1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    Buffalo Wing Sauce:
    1/2 cup Crystal Louisiana’s Pure Hot Sauce
    1/2 cup margarine or butter
    For variety, try this Ginger-Soy Glaze:
    1/4 cup honey
    2 tablespoons soy sauce
    3 large garlic cloves, crushed
    1 2×1″ piece of ginger, peeled, sliced
    1/4 cup water
    Optional:
    Celery sticks
    Bleu cheese dressing
