Easy Buffalo Wing Recipe

Usually I am a pretty decisive person. Whenever I was going on a date in college, myroommate would tease me“you’ll know tonight”- meaning I wouldn’t waste his or my time with a second date if I didn’t think it was going anywhere. I had a lot of first and last dates.

When it comes to food, I am also usually pretty decisive. But when it comes to which variation of hot sauce concoction to smother your hot wings with (traditional hot sauce, honey hot sauce, or a combo of the two) I am really indecisive.

In this case of win-win-win sauces to make the best hot wings, I just couldn’t bring myself to pick which sauce I liked best – or thought you would like best –it would be like choosing your favorite child – they are all special and different. So I’ve included three variations of hot sauces that you can choose from depending on your mood and you can start with the Buffalo Honey Hot Wings if you are indecisive. But the great news is, you can’t go wrong with any of the sauces, especially when the wings themselves are to live for smothered in the tantalizing rub.

So I guess the real question is, not what sauce you will pick, but rather, Are you ready for the BEST Buffalo Wingsever?!!! As in even better than any “wings” place you have ever been to? And easy enough that you will never be tempted to buy hot wings again? In fact, when Patrick and I went out on a double date to a wings joint, we both left feeling completely cheated. Cheated we had spent our hard earned money on wings that may be good by the world’s standards but mediocre compared to the standard of these Buffalo Hot Wings. It’s a high standard.

Hot Wings Recipe ingredients

This hot chicken wings recipe can be used as a springboard to make pretty much any wings you’d like! In the recipe card below, I’ve listed the ingredients needed to make either buffalo wing sauce or honey hot sauce (spicy or mild).

But to make the flavorful wings themselves, you’ll need:

  • Chicken wings: You want skin-on, bone-in chicken wings. Rinse and pat them dry before rubbing with the spice mixture.
  • Baking powder: You won’t be able to taste the baking powder but in simplified terms it helpsdraw moisture to the surface of the skin where it evaporates, breaks down proteins within the skin and accelerates the browning process resulting in crispy, bakedhot wings.
  • Brown sugar: Balances out the spicy sauce and rub.
  • Spices: A mixture of chili powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

How to make Buffalo Wings

These hot wings arelayered in spices, crispy on the outside yet juicy on the inside and smothered in hot sauce or honey hot sauce. They are restaurant (or better!) delicious but you will be AMAZED at just how easy these buffalo wings are to make!

  1. First, rinse and pat the wings dry, this will help make your wings extra crispy.
  2. Whisk together all of the rub ingredients of chili powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, etc. and baking powder to make them crispy.
  3. To achieve this finger licking goodness, all you do is line your pan (for easy clean up), add your wings to a bag to shake with the spices and bake until crispy.
  4. Then you toss in your simple sauce of a little butter, honey, molasses and hot sauce. So every crispy hot wing is smotheredin tangy sweet buffalo hotness.

These buffalo wings are so good, I was eating them at every stage – baked with only the rub, baked with the rub and smothered in sauce and then baked with the rub, smothered in sauce then dipped in blue cheese sauce. If Ididn’t have pictures I would have lost count of how many wings this recipe makes!

In addition to their delish factor, these buffalo wings make the perfect appetizer for any occasion (like New Year’s!) because all of the prep can be done beforehand and because everyone lovescrispy smothered chicken that you get to dip and dip and dip.

Can I prep this Buffalo Wing Recipe in advance?

These hot chicken wings can easily be prepped ahead of time.

  • Prepare the chicken up to baking, then refrigerate for up to 12 hours – you can cover for 6 hours then uncover for the last 6 to help dry out the skin.
  • Whisk the sauce ingredients together and store in the refrigerator until it’s time to bake the wings. You can also simmer and thicken the sauce ahead of time and store in the refrigerator but you will need to whisk in some water to thin over heat as it will thicken in the refrigerator.
  • When it’s time to bake the wings, let them rest on the counter for 15 minutes then proceed to bake according to directions and simmer the sauce until thickened.

Baked Buffalo Wings Recipe tips

  • Dry chicken wings. Don’t just pat the wings dry with paper towels, but squeeze them VERY DRY. The drier the wings, the crispier they will get.Dry skin also helps the rub stick. You can even refrigerate your wings for up to 6 hours on a baking rack for the skin to dry out even more.If you do refrigerate the wings, be sure to bring them to room temperature before baking.This should only take about 15 minutes on the counter.
  • Use a baking rack.Line a regular size baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup and then top with a baking rack.Spray baking rack with cooking spray – don’t forget this step or your wings will stick! The baking rack elevates the chicken wings so the air can circulate under the wings for crispier skin.It also lets the fat drip off the chicken instead of the wings sitting in a pool of grease.
  • Don’t skip baking powder. Baking powder is composed of an acid which draws moisture to the surface of the chicken skin where it evaporates, accelerating the browning process so your chicken can get nice and crispy. Do NOT use baking SODA!

Buffalo Wing storage

Leftover buffalo wings should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.When properly stored, chicken wings are good for days.

How to Reheat Hot Wings

You can reheat the chicken wing in the oven or the air fryer.

How to Reheat Hot Wings in the AIR FRYER:

  • Line basket(s) with foil and spray with cooking spray.
  • Add chicken wings in a single layer to baskets.
  • Use the “snack” setting to reheat or air fry at 360 degrees F for 4 minutes, then increase heat to 400°F and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes.

How to Reheat Hot Wings in the Oven:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line a baking sheet with foil (for easy cleanup) and spray rack with cooking spray.
  • Line wings on baking sheet so they aren’t touching.
  • Bake for 15 minutes or until heated through.

Can I freeze Buffalo Wings?

These baked buffalo wings freeze well, but note that they may lose some of their crispness once frozen.

  • Line chicken wings in a single layer on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Place in the freezer to flash freeze until solid, about 1-2 hours. Flash freezing allows the chicken wings to be placed together in a freezer container without freezing together.
  • Transfer frozen wings to a freezer safe container or freezer size plastic bag, squeeze out excess air to prevent freezer burn.
  • Freeze for up to three months.
  • When ready to serve, line a baking sheet with foil (for easy cleanup) and top with baking rack. Spray rack with cooking spray.
  • Line frozen wings on the baking rack and transfer to the refrigerator to thaw.
  • Once thawed, bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes or until heated through.

Sauce options for these Hot Wings

What’s the best hot sauce for wings? You tell me! Here’s a little breakdown of the three hot wing sauce options:

1. Traditional Buffalo Hot Wings Saucetastes like traditional hot wings flavor by combining hot sauce, molasses and butter – traditional and amazing.

2. Buffalo Honey Hot Wings Sauce(pictured in this post)is a balance of honey and hot sauce for the sweet and spicy combination I adore. This sauce also uses molasses and butter but the primary ingredient is honey which is then spiced with Hot Wings FAQs

What is the difference between buffalo wings and normal wings?

The main difference between buffalo wings and normal wings is the flavoring and preparation. Buffalo wings are deep-fried and coated in a signature spicy sauce made with hot sauce and butter, giving them a tangy and fiery taste. On the other hand, normal wings can be prepared in various ways, such as baking or grilling, and they come in a broader range of flavors beyond the specific buffalo sauce, allowing for a diverse array of seasoning options, from mild to spicy or savory.

How do you get buffalo sauce to stick to wings?

To get buffalo sauce to stick to wings, it’s essential to toss the wings in the sauce immediately after they come out of the fryer or oven while they are still hot. The heat helps the sauce adhere to the wings, creating a flavorful and evenly coated exterior.

Do you put buffalo sauce before or after baking wings?

Buffalo sauce is typically added to wings after they’re cooked to preserve the texture of the wings. If the sauce is applied before cooking, it can break down and lose its consistency due to the high heat of the cooking process. Adding the buffalo sauce post-cooking ensures that the wings remain crispy while allowing them to absorb the flavorful sauce, creating the classic combination of a crispy exterior with a tangy and spicy coating.

    Hi Jen,

    Just made the honey buffalo wings and LOVED them! I was surprised I did because I thought the honey would be much too sweet and hide my precious hot sauce but the sweet worked well with the heat of the crispy rub. I went back in for more when they were cold and apart from YUM, the sauce was gone a little thick as you mentioned it might. Do you think if I left out / halved the corn starch, I could make the sauce in advance and reheat when serving? I’m thinking pot luck dinners or having people over when it’s good to have as much done as possible in advance.

    • Jen says

      Hi Ally, I’m thrilled you loved the Honey Buffalo Wings so much! As far as reheating the sauce, you can definitely leave out half the cornstarch if you are planning on serving it later. To thin it further, heat it on the stove and add a little water a little at a time until it reaches your desired consistency. Happy cooking!

          Could I make them up with the rub and refrigerate overnight, then bake them next day? Or is that too long in fridge?

          • Jen says

            Absolutely, not too long at all. They should be even crispier this way because the skin will dry out a little.

    I love your blog and your life story. I hope this email finds you in good health. Would I be able to do these in the slow cooker? I wasn’t sure because of the baking soda. I recently did wings in the slow cooker for Super Bowl sunday which were fall off the bone tender and my son loved them.

    Will my wings still be Crispy without a wire rack

    Reply

      The wire rack elevates the wings so the hot air can circulate all around – so they will be crispy on the top but not as crispy on the bottom.
