Instructions

Sauce

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a saucepan over a medium-high heat. When melted, add the garlic and cook until golden.
  • Add the hot sauce, coconut aminos, paprika, salt, pepper, and vinegar, then mix well. Bring to a light simmer. Then, add the butter and cook until completely melted and well combined with the rest of the ingredients. Remove from the heat and set aside.

Chicken

  • Preheat the oven to 250F (120C), line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, and place a baking rack (sprayed with oil) on top.
  • Place the dry chicken wings, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Mix well.
  • Place the chicken onto the baking rack and into the preheated oven with the baking sheet underneath.
  • Bake for 30 minutes. Then, raise the heat to 425F (220C) and bake for around 50 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and crispy.
  • Remove from the oven and place into a clean mixing bowl. Pour the sauce on top and toss to coat. Serve with blue cheese dip or ranch, cucumber, celery sticks, and keto coleslaw.
