Ingredients
  

For the Wings

  • 2 kg chicken wings Main protein
  • 5 tsp baking powder (aluminum-free) Contributes to crispiness
  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt Enhances flavor
  • 60 g unsalted butter, melted Adds richness
  • 120 ml Frank’s Red Hot Provides heat and flavor
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar Balances spiciness
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt For the sauce
  • 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese Adds creamy texture
  • 1/2 cup sour cream Provides tang and creaminess
  • 1/4 cup mayo Adds richness
  • 1 clove garlic, minced Adds depth of flavor
  • 1–3 tbsp milk To thin sauce; affects consistency
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice Adds brightness
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt For seasoning
  • Cracked black pepper to taste Adds flavor
  • Celery or cucumber For crunch

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Start by preheating your oven. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with foil or parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • If you have a wire rack, set it on top of the baking sheet for air circulation around the wings.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken wings with baking powder and kosher salt. Toss the wings to ensure they’re evenly coated.
  • Place the coated chicken wings on the wire rack in a single layer, spaced out to allow air flow.

Baking

  • Bake in the oven until golden and crispy, watching for a nice brown color to indicate they’re ready.

Making the Sauce

  • While the wings are baking, prepare the sauce by whisking together melted butter, Frank’s Red Hot, brown sugar, and additional kosher salt.

Combining

  • After baking, transfer wings to a mixing bowl, pour the sauce over and toss gently until well coated.

Preparing the Dip

  • Combine blue cheese, sour cream, mayo, minced garlic, milk, lemon juice, kosher salt, and cracked black pepper to taste in a bowl.

Serving

  • Serve the wings hot with the blue cheese dip and crunchy celery or cucumber.

Notes

Wings can be served as a snack, part of a meal, or even for breakfast on weekends. Store leftovers in an airtight container for about 3 days.
