Fantastic Hot 'n' Spicy Wings

This is the BEST recipe for hot wings and I have tried many others over the years ---I make these quite often at my get parties and everyone loves them --- you may double all ingredients if desired, if you are doubling the ingredients, I suggest to just start with 2 tablespoons hot sauce such as Louisiana hot sauce then add more to reach the desired heat --- I have even prepared these on the grill instead of the broiler and then finished cooking them in the oven with the sauce, another idea is you may cook the wings hours in advance or even a day ahead cool slightly and just leave them in the fridge overnight, then the following day just coat them in the hot sauce and then bake them in the oven, you may even prepare the hot sauce a day ahead in fact it tastes even better if prepared in advance just refrigerate overnight, preparing the wings and the sauce in advance is a great time saver if you are making them for a crowd,

These were amazing! I followed your recipe except that I did not have dried onion, so I added a bit of onion powder instead. I added a bit of cayenne pepper for an extra kick and I also followed the advice of another reviewer and subbed hot sauce for the 1/4 cup of water. THESE WERE SUPERB!!! Thank you for the awesome recipe!

    We really enjoyed these wings. The sauce is fantastic, and I love that they are baked. We did broil them on both sides to crisp them well. I was unsure about the dried onions, it looked like so much to use, but decided to trust you and go with it. I am glad I did!! With 2 tbsp hot sauce, they were not spicy at all to us, just sweet. Still YUMMY, but next time I will try much more, possibly in place of the water as others have suggested. Either way, you can not go wrong with this recipe.

    Hi KITTENCAL; Made these Fantastic Spicy Wings yesterday. Your combination of condiments was SUPERB and brought out the spicy, flavorous, savorous, aromatic and appetizing chicken that I have had in a long time. I doubled the amount of garlic cloves as I like the garlicky taste. I placed the wings and drumettes in a casserole dish, poured the Sauce over and baked them for 30 minutes at 375 F. Then took them out of the oven and crisped them under the broiler. Oh WOW, delicious, will be making them again for the weekend. Thanks for sharing this recipe. "Uncle Bill"

    I made this recipe for a New Years Party and scaled it for 4 lbs of wings. I used Lyle's golden syrup in place of the honey (always do) and used the recommended hot sauce PLUS subbed hot sauce for the water in the recipe. Cooked the sauce 2 days ahead and let it sit. Made the wings and they flew off the tray! Oh so good.....mostly sweet with a spicy kick at the end. I used Texas Pete hot sauce and was surprised even with the extra it wasn't real hot, but I'll try a different hot sauce next time. Anyway, make these wings-they are as Kittencal says-FANTASTIC!!!
