Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup hot sauce such as Franks Red Hot Sauce
- Juice of 1 small orange around 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons
Instructions
- Bake Your Wings: Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place your wings on the parchment and toss with kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and extra-virgin olive oil.
- Transfer to the bottom rack of your oven skin side down, and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, turning halfway through and then transferring to the top rack, skin side up, until golden brown, crisp, and fully cooked through.
- While your wings are in the oven, make your Buffalo and Orange Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt your butter over low heat. Stir in the hot sauce until fully combined. Season with kosher salt and black pepper, finishing with your freshly squeezed orange juice. Set aside until your wings are ready.
- Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large bowl and toss over your sauce. Coat to combine.
- Serve with our Shaved Celery and Fennel Salad.
