How to Make Good Eats Baked Buffalo Wings

  1. Place a 6-quart saucepan with a steamer basket and 1 inch of water in the bottom. Bring to a boil over high heat, then cover.
  2. Add the wings to the steamer basket. Cover, reduce heat to medium, and steam for 10 minutes.
  3. Remove wings from steamer basket and thoroughly pat dry with paper towels.
  4. Arrange wings in a single layer on a wire rack placed over a half-sheet pan lined with paper towels. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
  5. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  6. Replace paper towels with parchment paper or aluminum foil sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
  7. Roast wings on the middle rack for 20 minutes.
  8. Flip wings and roast for another 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden brown and crispy.
  9. For extra crispy wings, broil for an additional 3-5 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  10. While wings are roasting, melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant.
  11. In a large bowl, whisk together melted garlic butter, hot sauce, and salt (if using).
  12. Remove wings from oven and immediately transfer to the bowl with the sauce. Toss gently to coat evenly.
  13. Serve immediately with your favorite blue cheese dressing and celery sticks.
