Everybody loves Hot Wings, well except me. I have never been a wing fan. I’m not sure why, they just always seem gross to me. Maybe it’s just because I’ve only seen them in restaurants & they just never appealed to me.
Well, unfortunately for me, my family loves them. We have to go somewhere every weekend to get wings. I can’t stand it because I know how they are cooked & also know what’s in the nasty sauces they serve.
So I decided to make Hot Wings myself. Paleo-style. This way I know my family is getting what they want, but this way I know it’s healthy. And to be honest, I kinda like them now. Don’t tell anyone! I think it was a mental thing anyway.
Just knowing that they are organic & the ingredients are clean, helps!
Ingredients:
- 1-2 lbs. Organic Wings (or however many you want) I made a couple of lbs. (I found mine at Costco)
- Franks Red Hot Sauce
- sea salt
- organic garlic powder (optional)
- organic onion powder (optional)
- Primal Kitchens Ranch Dressing (for dipping) *
- EVOO 1-2 Tbs.
- celery sticks (for dipping)
*I buy the Primal Kitchens Ranch Dressing from Thrive Market instead of Amazon. If you don’t have a membership you should check it out. I find that their prices are a good bit cheaper than Amazon. I saved enough with my first order to pay for the membership. Their membership is almost 1/2 of what Amazon’s is. They offer a free 30 day trial with your first order. Definitely worth checking out!
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400*
- Put wings in a large stainless steel bowl.
- Drizzle with EVOO & mix to coat wings.
- Sprinkle with sea salt, garlic powder, onion powder & generously with Franks Red Hot Sauce to coat wings thoroughly.
- Place in casserole dish(s) or on a baking sheet & bake for 30 min or until browning then flip & then bake until brown & crispy. About another 30 min. depending on how crispy you like them. (You can line the baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.)
- Serve with celery sticks & a side of Franks Red Hot Sauce & Primal Kitchens Ranch Dressing for dipping!
Or serve it up with a couple of sides & call it Dinner!
Tip* Cook on the grill for an even better flavor or smoke them on the smoker!
These are so easy to whip up for an afternoon. Yes, they do take a while to cook, but prep time is so quick & easy. Basically, hands off after that. My husband said “These are the best wings I’ve ever had. Can you make these every weekend?” I would say that is a win-win for both of us! Hope you enjoy!
