Chicken Wings

 My husband loves this chicken wing recipe. Although, I don't know of many chicken wing recipes that he doesn't love. 🙂 This particular recipe came from my grandma. She has since passed but I have vivid memories of her making these wings for my grandpa. He too loved them and one time I remember my husband and him having a playful competition to see who could eat more. I believe Jason won that competition with pride. 

This recipe is super easy to prepare and doesn't take long to bake either. I often serve ours with french fries or a baked potato and macaroni and cheese.

 I'm a wee bit of a baby when it comes to hot/spicy foods. I truly can't handle the heat. So, I like to dip my wings in ranch dressing.

Chicken Wings

Servings: 0

Ingredients

• 2 pounds of chicken wings approx 16 If not already done cut apart wings and drumettes
• 1 stick of butter
• 1 package of Onion Soup Mix dry
• ¾ cup of hot sauce
• ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
• olive oil

Instructions

• Place butter,soup mix, cayenne pepper and hot sauce in a sauce pan and turn to medium heat.
• Allow butter to melt and stir often.
• Brush chicken wings with olive oil and place under the broiler for about 2 min. Just to get the skin lightly browned.
• Remove from oven and turn oven to 400 degrees.
• Brush the hot sauce mixture onto the wings.
• Place in 400 degree oven for 30 minutes.
• About halfway through the cooking process I brush more hot sauce on the wings.
• Remove wings and place on a serving platter.

Notes

I used a wire rack that I sprayed with nonstick cooking spray but parchment paper or foil will also work. I suggest spraying whatever you use to help the chicken not to stick.
