Did you know you can create the same crispiness in a chicken wing in the oven as in as fryer? These wings are super simple to make and only require a few ingredients. The secret ingredient? Baking powder. The wings are coated with baking powder and salt which breaks down the proteins in the skin helping them to brown.. The wings are then baked in a low temp oven to render the fat and then baked at a high temp to allow the skin to become ultra crispy. Last, but not least, the wings are tossed in a delicious buttery, sriracha sauce. They’re just the right amount of heat and a perfect fit to any keto diet. These are great for dinner paired with low carb veggies or as an appetizer for a weekend party.
Place the chicken wings, baking powder and salt into a plastic bag. Seal the bag and toss the wings until they are evenly coated.
Remove the wings from the bag and place them on a baking sheet, leaving some space between the wings. Bake at 250 F for 20-30 minutes to render the fat and dry out the skin.
Raise the oven temperature to 425 F for 40-50 mins until the wings are golden, brown, delicious and crispy.
Melt the salted butter and mix in the Sriracha Sauce and Frank's Hot Sauce in a medium bowl to make the Buffalo sauce.
Toss the wings in the Buffalo sauce and serve immediately!
