In this version, the wings taste especially good because they are baked, not fried. According to the Love Chef, Buffalo Chicken Wings were frits served at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, New York, in 1964. For mild wings, use just a dash of cayenne pepper and for hot wings, use 1/8 tsp. cayenne. For RED-HOT wings, use 1/4 tsp.

Ingredients

  • 18 24 chicken wings
  • 1/2 C. Unsalted margarine, melted
  • 6 Tbs. Hot pepper sauce
  • Cayenne pepper to taste
  • Celery sticks
  • Blue cheese dressing of your choice

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place the wings on a rack in a baking pan and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and reduce the heat to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together the margarine, hot pepper sauce, and cayenne pepper. Remove a small amount of the sauce and brush it onto the wings. Bake the wings for 10-12 minutes longer, or until crispy and cooked through. Pour the remaining sauce over the wings. Serve the wings with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing on the side.

Makes 4-6 appetizer servings.
