So, let’s get started!

What You’ll Need

  • 2 pounds of chicken wings
  • 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1 teaspoon of paprika
  • 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon of onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 1/2 cup of hot sauce
  • 2 tablespoons of butter
  • Optional toppings: chopped cilantro, blue cheese dressing

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken Wings

Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with kitchen paper. Place the wings in a large bowl and drizzle them with the vegetable oil. Season the wings with salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and black pepper. Use your hands to give them a good toss, ensuring all the wings are evenly coated with the spices.

Step 2: Bake the Wings

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the seasoned chicken wings on it in a single layer. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 35-40 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and crispy.

Step 3: Prepare the Spicy Sauce

While the wings are in the oven, it’s time to prepare the spicy sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, add the hot sauce to the pan and stir until well combined. Let the sauce simmer on low heat for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 4: Toss the Wings in the Sauce

Once the wings are cooked, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the spicy sauce over the wings and gently toss them until every wing is coated with the delicious sauce. If you like your wings extra spicy, you can add more hot sauce to intensify the heat at this stage.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!

Transfer the saucy wings to a platter and sprinkle with chopped cilantro for a fresh burst of flavor. If you’re a fan of blue cheese dressing, serve it alongside the wings for dipping. Now, grab a napkin and dig into your homemade spicy chicken wings!
