Easy Baked Buffalo Chicken Wings

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a roasting rack on top. Cover the rack with another sheet of foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Use a knife to poke holes all over the foil.

Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Place the chicken wings in a gallon-sized zip-top bag. Sprinkle in the salt and baking powder. Seal the bag and shake to evenly coat the wings.

Drizzle the canola oil into the bag. Seal the bag and shake once more to coat the chicken wings in oil.

Arrange the chicken wings on the foil-covered roasting rack.

Bake the chicken wings on middle rack of oven until browned and crispy, 45-50 minutes.

Check to see that chicken wings are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Place the melted butter, buffalo sauce, and garlic powder in a large mixing bowl. Whisk to combine.

Transfer the chicken wings to the mixing bowl. Toss to evenly coat wings in sauce.

Plate and serve immediately.

Tips & Tricks (5)

The Baking Powder Secret 🔑
Baking powder is the game-changer that creates ultra-crispy skin without deep frying—it raises the pH and promotes browning, so don't skip it or reduce the amount.
Pat Wings Completely Dry 💧
Use paper towels to thoroughly dry the wings before coating; any residual moisture will steam the skin instead of crisping it, sabotaging your texture.
Use a Wire Rack Setup 🧊
Place wings on a wire rack positioned over your baking sheet to allow hot air to circulate underneath, ensuring even crisping on all sides.
Toss Sauce While Still Hot 🔥
Apply your buffalo sauce to the wings within 2-3 minutes of removing them from the oven while they're still hot, so the sauce adheres and caramelizes slightly on the exterior.
Double-Coat for Extra Crunch 🎯
For maximum crispiness, spray the coated wings with nonstick cooking spray before baking, then apply a light second spray halfway through cooking for enhanced browning.
