Ingredients

  • 12 Chicken drumettes and flats
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • ½ tablespoon Cajun seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • ½ teaspoon Black pepper
  • ½ cup Frank’s RedHot Buffalo Wing Sauce
  • ¼ cup Butter unsalted melted
  • 1 tablespoon Garlic minced
  • ½ tablespoon Parsley chopped (sub ¼ teaspoon dried parsley)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, then place a wire rack on top to allow the wings to crisp evenly.
  • To prepare the wings, pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture- this is super important to help them crisp up. If you’re using whole wings, be sure to cut off the wing tip, and separate the wings and the drums using a sharp knife.
  • Add the chicken wings to a large bowl, drizzle the olive oil over them, then sprinkle in the cajun seasoning,garlic powder, onion powder,paprika, and black pepper. Use tongs or your hands to mix the seasoning all over the chicken until each piece is evenly coated.
  • Now place the seasoned wings in a single layer on the wire rack. Make sure the wings have at least 1-2 inches in between them so that they can get extra crispy.
  • Place the wings in the oven and bake for about 30-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden and crispy.
  • While the wings are baking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic, and Frank's RedHot Buffalo Wing Sauce. Mix the sauce for 2-3 minutes until everything is combined, then remove from the heat.
  • Once the wings are done baking and crispy, remove them from the oven. Place them in a large bowl and pour the buffalo sauce over them. Toss them in the sauce to coat each wing evenly.
  • Serve immediately with a side of blue cheese or ranch dressing, celery, and carrot sticks. And enjoy your crispy buffalo wings!
