Crispy Baked Buffalo Wings

These oven baked buffalo wings are finger lickin’ good – and no deep frying required!

I’m a big buffalo wings fan – the deep-fried kind – who wouldn’t go crazy over those right?  They’re not exactly the healthiest of foods, so I needed to come up with a lightened up way to enjoy them.  Now these may be a bit different from your average wings because they are not fried, but they turned out so crispy, scrumptious and flavorful.

And you don’t need to deal with a big vat of oil – that’s a win in my book!

I’m sharing a super easy wing recipe, and with my method for baking them instead of deep frying, you’ll get crispy wings every time.

Ingredients

• 2 lbs chicken wings pat dry with paper towels
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 cup Budweiser Brewmaster's Premium Wing Sauce Mild, more or less to taste
• Blue cheese dressing celery and carrot sticks, for serving

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 425F. Place a baking tray over a large baking sheet lined with foil and coat with nonstick spray.
• Toss wings with vegetable oil, salt and pepper. Arrange on the baking tray in one layer and bake for 45 minutes until they are cooked through and the skin is crispy, flipping half way through.
• Toss cooked wings with wing sauce and serve immediately with blue cheese dressing and celery and carrot sticks.

I used Budweiser Brewmaster’s Premium Wing Sauce for tossing my wings in while they’re still hot, and love that they have the perfect combination of spices and tangy flavors. I used the mild variety, but it also comes in hot if you like a little more heat. Beer and wings – I’d say that’s a pretty solid combination!

I’m entering this recipe in the Budweiser BBQ Sauce Recipe Challenge. I can’t wait to use Budweiser’s BBQ sauces and marinades in my grilling recipes all summer long. Be sure to follow Budweiser on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook for more delicious recipe ideas!
