Here are a couple of simple, healthier versions of classic recipes that I came up with
for the Super Bowl this year! Go Hawks :)
Baked Hot Wings
Ingredients
3/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. salt
20 chicken wings
1/2 cup melted butter
1/2 cup hot pepper sauce
Directions
- Prepare a baking sheet with aluminum foil and cooking spray.
- Mix the dry ingredients.
- Toss the wings in the mixture until completely coated and place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Refrigerate wings for one hour.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Whisk together the melted butter and hot sauce.
- Dip the wings into the sauce and return them to the sheet.
- Bake until no longer pink on the inside, about 45 minutes. Turn the wings over once during cooking so they cook evenly.
