These are the hot wings Alyssa made this year on New Year's Day. Delish.
I got fancy with the empty Frank's RedHot bottle.
Baked Buffalo Wings
Compliments of JennaDish
from Leesah on Allrecipes.com
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
20 chicken wings
1/2 cup melted butter
1/2 cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot®)
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, and 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 onto the prepared baking sheet, and place into the refrigerator. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Whisk together the melted butter and hot sauce in a small bowl. Dip the wings into the butter mixture, and place back on the baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and crispy on the outside, about 45 minutes. Turn the wings over halfway during cooking so they cook evenly.
I didn't know you could make your own microwave popcorn. I read the recipe in an Ellie Krieger cookbook and was surprised. Evidently it's not a well-known fact, because the first 4 people I told said they didn't know you could microwave popcorn this way either.
In a bowl, toss 1/4 cup popcorn kernels with 1/2 teaspoon canola oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Put in a paper bag, close the bag and fold the top down a few times.
This is the bag flipped over - gets oily, hence the need for the plate. But the oil is better in the bag than on the popcorn.
Remember, this popcorn comes out plain - no butter, and needing more salt. Just like air-popped.
