I know it’s fall and I should be mostly sharing apple and pumpkin recipes however if you’ve been outside lately you know that it’s been super warm. It was 78 degrees today in the garden state. I can’t wait for the low 50’s so I could drink my pumpkin spice lattes in total bliss. Now that that’s out of the way, this is an oven roasted chicken wing recipe and it is the best recipe ever.
I also have an amazing recipe for the best fried chicken wings I’ve ever made, click here: http://www.cookedbyjulie.com/chicken-wings/
I started by placing the wings in a salt water brine. I don’t ever remove the tips because they don’t bother me. I seasoned these with lemon juice, butter, hot sauce, several spices, and I then roasted them to perfection. They were amazing and perfect for the 78-degree weather. Once they come out of the oven I like to brush them with some extra butter and dab a little extra hot sauce. I of course always dip them in bleu cheese dressing.
