Chicken Wing Sauce

This is one of my mom’s favorite things. She prefers them dry rub. I prefer them in a honey barbecue sauce. Most of the time, when we serve these, people want the traditional buffalo wing sauce.

Although you would think these are spicy from the amount of seasoning, they’re really not very spicy. Feel free to doctor them up, if you want to bring on the spice.

You may want to double the Tony Chachere’s and perhaps use something different than the ground ancho pepper. Ground ancho is more of a mild pepper with a smoky taste. It doesn’t have much heat. Try ground jalapeno powder instead if you want to knock your socks off.

Easy to Make

This is so easy, especially when you buy the wings already split and the tips removed. You simply mix up your flour and spices then pour it over the wings and stir them up to coat.

I suggest a baking pan with a wire rack for this recipe so any fat will drip away. Line the pan with foil before baking and you’ll have a much easier job when cleaning.

Are chicken wings gluten free?

I’ve amended this recipe to make these chicken wings gluten free. The secret is to use baking powder instead of flour. If you don’t mind the gluten, feel free to use regular flour instead. Either way will work.

Since these are baked, have as much as you like. Just don’t try to take any from my mom!

Notes

Double the recipe if you suspect that your mom may take them all and leave you without any at all.

For nutritional information, the serving size is one wing which is actually two pieces.

Important: Whenever possible, use a scale for measuring dry ingredients, like flour. This is the more accurate measurement. The scoop and level method of measuring is not accurate because you don’t know how packed your flour has become. If you don’t have a scale, stir the flour lightly then use the spoon and fill method instead. If you use too much flour, your recipe will be too dry and crumbly.
