Did you know you can create the same crispy chicken wings in the oven as you can in a fryer? These wings are super simple to make and only require a few ingredients! The secret ingredient? Baking powder! The wings are coated with baking powder and salt, which break down the proteins in the skin, helping them to brown. The wings are then baked in a low-temp oven to render the fat, and then baked at a high temp to allow the skin to become ultra-crispy. Last, but not least, the wings are tossed in a delicious, buttery sriracha sauce. They’re packing just the right amount of heat, and a perfect fit for any keto diet.
Place the chicken wings, baking powder, and salt into a plastic bag. Seal the bag and toss wings until evenly coated.
Remove the wings from the bag and place them on a baking sheet, leaving some space between the wings. Bake at 250 F for 20-30 minutes to render the fat and dry out the skin.
Raise the oven temperature to 425 F and continue baking for 40-50 mins until the wings are golden, brown, delicious, and crispy.
Make the Buffalo sauce by combining melted butter, sriracha, and hot sauce in a medium bowl.
Toss the wings in the Buffalo sauce and serve immediately!
