Spicy Ranch Chicken Wings

Thank you, Keegan, for this simple and super tasty recipe!
Servings: 15 Wings
Author: Keegan via Kelly the Kitchen Kop

Ingredients

  • 15 chicken wings, best from a farmer you know and trust to raise the birds humanely and naturally.
  • 3 Tablespoons butter, pastured butter is best
  • 1/3 cup Franks Red Hot , I checked the ingredient label: aged cayenne red peppers, vinegar, water, salt and garlic powder–that's it, looks great!
  • 1/3 cup ranch dressing, I make my own ranch dressing to avoid the soybean oil in the brands at the store. It's so easy!
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper , add more to your taste preference.
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder , add more to your taste preference.
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt , add more to your taste preference.

Instructions

  • To make the sauce, mix everything together except the wings.  Bake the wings at 425* in a deep baking pan to catch the liquid as the chicken cooks. It'll take about an hour, you want the wings to have a crispy outside without burning.  You could also grill the wings, but it’s easier to bake them. As soon as they come out of the oven, throw them in the bowl of the sauce, cover with a tight lid, and shake them around.  Obviously if they are too spicy or not spicy enough, all you have to do is add more butter or use less sauce.
  • If you want to make another good variation, replace the ranch with honey, and hot sauce with BBQ sauce.
