Ingredients

Scale

1/2 cup Frank’s RedHot sauce (adjust for heat preference)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with foil.
Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels, then season evenly with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika in a large bowl.
Arrange seasoned wings on the baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through for even crispiness.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and stir in hot sauce; simmer for about 5 minutes.
Transfer baked wings to a large bowl and pour the hot sauce mixture over them, tossing until well coated.
