SIDES FOR BUFFALO WINGS RECIPES

Steps:

• Place a 6-quart saucepan with a steamer basket and 1-inch of water in the bottom, over high heat, cover and bring to a boil.
• Remove the tips of the wings and discard or save for making stock. Using kitchen shears, or a knife, separate the wings at the joint. Place the wings into the steamer basket, cover, reduce the heat to medium and steam for 10 minutes. Remove the wings from the basket and carefully pat dry. Lay the wings out on a cooling rack set in a half sheet pan lined with paper towels and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Replace the paper towels with parchment paper. Roast on the middle rack of the oven for 20 minutes. Turn the wings over and cook another 20 minutes or until meat is cooked through and the skin is golden brown.
• While the chicken is roasting, melt the butter in a small bowl along with the garlic. Pour this along with hot sauce and salt into a bowl large enough to hold all of the chicken and stir to combine.
• Remove the wings from the oven and transfer to the bowl and toss with the sauce. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray and line with aluminum foil.
• Place the cayenne pepper powder, garlic powder, flour, and salt into a resealable plastic bag then shake to mix the ingredients. You can also mix these in a bowl as an alternative.
• Next, add the chicken wings to the plastic bag or bowl of spices then seal and toss until it is well-coated.
• Place the wings onto the prepared baking sheet and store them in the refrigerator for at least an hour so that its flour coating hardens.
• In the meantime, preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and the hot pepper sauce.
• Brush the wings with the butter mixture and place it back onto the baking sheet.
• Bake the wings in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes.
• After 25 minutes, turn the wings over and bake it for another 20 to 25 minutes so that it cooks evenly.
