Instructions
Step 1: Boil the Wings
Fill a large pot halfway with water.
Add the cayenne pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and chicken wings.
Bring to a boil and cook for 30 minutes to ensure the wings are tender and infused with flavor.
Step 2: Broil the Wings
Preheat your oven to Broil (High).
Lightly coat a baking dish or tray with non-stick spray.
Transfer the boiled wings onto the tray and broil for 15 minutes per side.
For extra crispiness, broil for up to 20 minutes per side.
Step 3: Make the Sauce
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine Louisiana hot sauce and margarine.
Microwave for 2 minutes, or until melted and combined.
For a thicker sauce, microwave slightly longer.
Step 4: Toss and Serve
Once the wings are nicely crisped, transfer them to a large bowl.
Pour the buffalo sauce over the wings and toss until evenly coated.
Serve hot and enjoy with ranch or blue cheese dressing if desired.
- Pro Tip
To lock in even more flavor, let the boiled wings rest in the fridge for 30 minutes before broiling—this helps the skin dry out slightly for a crispier finish!
