Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450 degrees

Bring a large pot of half water half chicken broth to boiling. Boil the wings 8-10 minutes and remove to drain on a wire rack. (Helps reduce some of the fat allowing for quicker crisping in the oven).

Season the wings with your favorite DRY seasoning, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, etc.

Bake wings on a sheet pan for 30 minutes, then turn wings over and cook the other side for another 10 minutes.

Remove to a large bowl and toss in your favorite sauce. (see recipes to follow)

Serve while hot

For all Sauces: Combine all ingredients in a blender and mix until smooth. Pour into a saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally till slightly thickened. Remove from heat and allow to cool, toss wings until well coated.
