Recipe Ingredients:
- 20-30 chicken wings
- 1 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 5 tablespoons Frank’s hot sauce
- 3/4 cup Tabasco sauce
Recipe Instructions:
-
Prepare the Flour Mixture:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of spices.
-
Coat the Wings:
- Rinse the chicken wings and pat them dry with paper towels. Coat the wings evenly in the prepared flour mixture, ensuring each piece is well coated.
-
Prepare the Baking Sheet:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a large baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray to prevent the wings from sticking during baking.
-
Bake the Wings:
- Arrange the coated wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 40 minutes, turning the wings halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.
-
Prepare the Hot Sauce Mixture:
- While the wings are baking, melt the unsalted butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Once melted, stir in the Frank’s hot sauce and Tabasco sauce, adjusting the amount of Tabasco according to your desired heat level.
-
Coat the Wings with Sauce:
- Once the wings are cooked through and golden brown, transfer 8-10 wings at a time to a large plastic bowl with a lid. Pour the prepared hot sauce mixture over the wings, cover the bowl with the lid, and shake vigorously to coat the wings evenly with the sauce.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Transfer the saucy wings to a serving platter and serve immediately, accompanied by a side of cooling ranch dressing for dipping. Enjoy the fiery flavor sensation with friends and family, but be prepared to “call the fire department” if things get too hot to handle!
