Superbowl Sunday is fast approaching and I am putting together my menu to get ready for the party! I will be honest- I really only like the Superbowl for the commercials and the good food . . . and usually the half time show.

Let us give you your time back. With the Six Sisters’ Meal Plans, we do the dinner planning, grocery ordering, and then all you have to do is decide whether to pick them up or have them delivered.
How to make these tasty Baked Buffalo Wings:
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease with cooking spray. Place the flour, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and salt into a resealable plastic bag and shake to mix.
Make sure your chicken wings are completely dry (I dried mine off with a paper towel) and add the chicken wings to the bag. Seal the bag and toss until well coated with the flour mixture.
Place the wings onto the prepared baking sheet and place into the refrigerator. Refrigerate at least 1 hour (this will make your wings not “soggy”. If I am in a hurry, I will stick them in the freezer for about 20 minutes).
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Whisk together the melted butter and hot sauce in a small bowl. Dip the wings into the butter mixture, and place back on the baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and crispy on the outside, about 45 minutes. Turn the wings over halfway during cooking so they cook evenly.
Serve with your favorite dips (we love ranch dressing) or eat plain- they are delicious either way!

Yum! These would be great for the Superbowl!

Eric Pepple says:
I always either bake or grill my chicken wings, seems like I get a better flavor that way. I also found that after baking them and frying them really quickly in extremely hot oil, to get that crispy crust is a nice way to do it as well. Buffalo wings are definitely one of my favs though, thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much for linking this recipe

Jackie Crews says:
Hi! I was wondering if the chicken wings need to be completely thawed first. Thanks!
-
Cyd says:
We thawed our chicken wings first!
-
J. Ross says:
The picture seems to show only the "drumstick" portion of the chicken wing. Do you use both parts or just this part, i.e. is it for 20 whole chicken wings?Thanks!
-
Cyd says:
We just used it for the drumstick portion because that is what we like the best. It should be enough for 20 chicken wings. Can easily be doubled to cover more chicken.
-
Bruce says:
I prefer my wings "naked". Can I leave out the flour? Thanks
-
Cyd says:
We have only made this recipe using flour.
-
Gretchen says:
Chicken wings should be enjoyed with blue cheese. Not ranch ?
-
Kelly Burns says:
Prep time was easy , will have a taste review from a family of six after consumption. Thanks for sharing. Is this healthier way of cooking wings??
-
Kelly Burns says:
Blue cheese is the dip of choice by many in my household as well
-
Marian says:
Can these be made ahead and heated up
-
Mike says:
How long can you keep the floured chicken in the refrigerator before cooking
-
Momma Cyd says:
We have left them for a few hours and they have been fine.
