After recently discovering how incredibly easy it is to make homemade hot sauce, there was only one dish I had in mind when deciding what to do with it…Hot Wings.
Or more precisely, crispy oven baked hot wings smothered in the most delicious hot sauce that coats your fingers and makes your nose run. They really are as good as they sound.
There are a few tricks to making the perfect wing. Firstly, patting done the wings to remove as much moisture as possible before baking helps to make them extra crispy. Baking the wings on a wire rack ensures that the hot air circulates underneath which helps to render the fat.
After baking the wings, I recommend only tossing them in the hot sauce right before serving, otherwise they will become soggy if they are left to sit in the sauce for too long.
They make the perfect addition to any game day spread and really do taste so much more unhealthy less than they are, which is always a win in my books.
Here are a few more game day appetizer recipes that you might enjoy:

- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1/3 cup ghee or butter (or coconut oil for dairy free)
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tbsp honey or maply syrup
- 1/2 cup hot sauce
Instructions

- Lay the chicken wings out evenly on a wire rack placed on top of a baking sheet. Bake them in the oven for 25 minutes until crispy.
- While the chicken is baking, in a pot melt the ghee or butter on medium heat. Add in the minced garlic, honey and hot sauce and whisk until bubbling and well combined. Leave to simmer for 5 minutes until it begins to reduce and then remove from the heat.
- Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a bowl and pour the sauce overtop. Toss them in the sauce so they are well coated. Serve warm

Why are you saying this recipe is dairy free? Don’t you realize that butter is a dairy product? And ghee is made from butter, so…
Please don’t mislead people, food allergens can be very serious and if you say this is dairy free, some unaware person may take you at your word and be harmed.
The recipe specifically says to sub coconut oil for the butter or ghee to make it dairy free. I’m going to try it. It sounds easy and delicious.
