For the Chicken Wings:

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Spicy Sauce:

  • 1/2 cup hot sauce (such as Frank's RedHot or your favorite brand)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce (adjust to taste for more heat)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust for desired spiciness)
  • Salt, to taste

For Serving:

  • Ranch or blue cheese dressing
  • Celery sticks and carrot sticks

Instructions:

1. Preparing the Chicken Wings:

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Pat dry the chicken wings with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  • Place the wings in a large bowl, drizzle with vegetable oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

2. Baking the Chicken Wings:

  • Arrange the seasoned wings on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are crispy and golden brown.

3. Making the Spicy Sauce:

  • In a saucepan over low heat, combine hot sauce, melted butter, honey or maple syrup, sriracha sauce, minced garlic, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt.
  • Stir continuously until the sauce is well combined and heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

4. Coating the Wings:

  • Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
  • Pour the prepared spicy sauce over the wings and toss gently to coat each wing evenly with the sauce.

5. Serving the Spicy Wings:

  • Arrange the coated wings on a serving platter.
  • Serve immediately with ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side for dipping.
  • Garnish with celery sticks and carrot sticks for a refreshing crunch.

Tips for Extra Flavor:

  • For an extra crispy texture, you can broil the wings for a couple of minutes after tossing them in the spicy sauce.
  • Adjust the level of spiciness by adding more or less sriracha and cayenne pepper to suit your preference.
  • Feel free to customize the sauce with your favorite spices or additional ingredients like garlic powder, onion powder, or lime juice.

These spicy chicken wings are guaranteed to be a hit at any gathering or game day party. The combination of crispy wings and fiery sauce will leave everyone coming back for more! Just be sure to have plenty of napkins on hand for those sticky fingers. Enjoy
