My Favorite Wings/Bacon Wrapped Smokies/Pics

[Roxy15]

These wings can be prepped ahead of time and bake them when you need them.  These wings are really good!

 

I serve them with Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing. but, feel free to use your favorite dressing. 

 

Hidden Valley Dressing:

 

Put 1 pkg. Hidden Valley Dressing in a bowl and add 1 cup Real Mayonnaise and 1/2 cup milk; whisk.  I put the dressing in an empty salad dressing jar.

 

Have Used Party Wings & Wings From The Deli We Go To:

 

Baked Hot Wings:  

 

Make enough coating to cover the number of wings you have.

 

This probably covers 20 wings/ Made more than 20 wings so I repeated this recipe until all the wings were well coated. I also doubled the butter/wing sauce; it just depends on how many chicken wings you have.

 

Coating:

 

3/4 Cup All Purpose Flour

1/2 Tsp. Cayenne Pepper

1/2 Tsp. Garlic Powder

1/2 Tsp. Salt

 

Chicken Wings:

 

1/2 Cup Melted Butter

1/2 Cup Frank's Red Hot Wings Buffalo Sauce

 

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; lightly grease with cooking spray.

 

Place the flour cayenne pepper, garlic powder and salt into a resealable plastic bag and shake to mix.

 

Add the chicken wings; seal and toss until well coated with the flour mixture.  Place the wings into the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate at least 1 hour.

 

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

 

Whisk together the melted butter and hot sauce in a bowl .  

 

Dip the chicken wings into the butter/hot sauce mixture and place on a baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated 400 degree oven until the chicken wings are no longer pink in the center and crispy on the outside, about 45 minutes.

 

Turn the chicken wings over halfway during cooking so they cook evenly.

 

Served with Ranch Dressing.
