Ingredients

  • 2 pounds of chicken wings (about 10-15 or so wings cut up)
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • a bottle of Frank's buffalo sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.
  • While the oven heats, make sure you have your chicken wings cut up and remove the tips and discard or save them to make chicken broth with later.
  • Dry the chicken parts really well with paper towels.
  • Mix the baking powder and salt together in a big zip top bag.
  • Toss the chicken in the mix and lay them skin side up on a foil-lined rimmed cookie sheet topped with a greased cooling rack so you can get the chicken up and air can circulate under it.
  • Place them in the oven and bake on the lowest shelf for 30 minutes.
  • Then raise the oven to 425 and move them to the top rack.
  • Bake 40 to 50 minutes more until they are crispy and golden brown.
  • Toss them with the buffalo sauce when they come out of the oven. Serve warm.
