Baked Buffalo Wings

Ingredients

Baked Buffalo Wings

6 lbs chicken wings, tips discarded, separated at joint into 2 pieces
salt and pepper
6 tbsp (1/3 cup) butter
1/2 cup hot sauce, such as Franks RedHot
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
Blue Cheese Dip

1 cup sour cream
125 g/4.5 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
¼ cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp minced green onion (from about 2 thin stalks)
½ tsp salt
Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spread wings out over two large baking sheets, avoiding overlap (or else the wings will steam, rather than crisp up!). Season well with salt and pepper; bake about 40 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.

Melt butter over medium heat. Add hot sauce and cayenne, if desired (taste first, then add cayenne to your heat preference).

Transfer wings to a large bowl and toss with sauce.

To make dip, simply whisk together all ingredients. Leftover dip may be refrigerated for two weeks. Get huge amount of chicken wings recipes.
